About us
A School of Opportunity… Inspire, Believe, Achieve!
Our mission at Halton Lodge Nursery and Primary School is to be a School of Opportunity with a vision to inspire every one of our children to believe in their own abilities to achieve their full potential! We do this by…
Providing a welcoming, safe, happy school where everyone is respected and listened to; a school where we take pride in ourselves and our achievements, enabling children to develop responsibility and become confident and successful learners.
Striving to be the hub of our local community and an integral part of our society; building and joining communities locally and beyond.
Being a partner in the education of our families and being committed to working in partnership with our parents and the wider community.
Our Values - Ready, Respectful, Safe
At our school, children are supported to be ready to learn, developing confidence, independence and a positive attitude towards their learning and behaviour. They are encouraged to take ownership of their choices and actions, preparing them for success both in and beyond the classroom. We provide a respectful, inclusive and safe environment where every child feels respected, supported and able to thrive. Our dedicated staff deliver high-quality learning experiences that broaden life experiences, build confidence and promote wellbeing. Most importantly, we celebrate what makes each child unique, nurturing strengths and providing careful support through challenges so that all children feel secure, respected and able to achieve their best.
