Will It Rain?

Mission Detail

“Loving God In All We Do”

St. Anne’s is a Catholic Primary School in Ormskirk, under the trusteeship of Douai Abbey, serving the parishes of St. Mary’s Aughton and St. Anne’s Ormskirk. We work in partnership with parishes and parents to provide the best possible education for our young people aged between 4 and 11, building on the foundations laid in Pre – School and local nurseries and preparing for their future development at the Catholic High School (or other Secondary School establishments.)

Aims:

·         We aim to stand for a rich Catholic tradition which is based on Gospel Values and in the teaching of Jesus who is the fullest expression of humankind.

·         We aim to recognise and endeavour to serve the needs of all members of the school community – academic, spiritual, moral and physical. We acknowledge in particular the needs of those who are disadvantaged in any way.

·         We aim to value the importance of fostering and developing the potential of each person in justice and equality and in educating each pupil as a whole person, made in the image and likeness of God. We offer a curriculum, which is challenging, contemporary, varied, vibrant and enjoyable and encourage each to play their part in it. We believe in the pursuit of excellence, not only in academic studies, but in all that has to do with life.
