St Anne's Catholic Primary School

The virtues chosen are common across cultures and faiths, but are sourced from the Christian tradition. The school focuses on a virtue every three weeks. The children think about what the virtue means, how we can see it in others and how we can manifest it in ourselves.

Each week, we look at a particular aspect of the virtue and an award is given to a member of each class in Friday's Award Assembly to a child who has 'lived' the virtue across the week.Acts of worship and circle times also link to the virtue and we have 'Signs of living the virtue' - things to 'notice' or look for that demonstrate the virtue.

The School Council are currently working on an explanation as to what their vision is and what their roles are. Watch this space! Our role is so important here at St Anne's, we need to set the best example of behaviour for the rest of the school. At the start of the year, we read and signed a School Council contract.

In St Anne's it is our mission to transmit values for living which are rooted in the teaching of Christ and in the faith and traditions of His Church and to foster the growth and development of each individual within the loving and supportive atmosphere of a gospel centered community.
