Welcome to our school website. It will give some insight to show you a little of what St Francis Xavier Catholic Primary School is like. St Francis Xavier is part of the St Catherine of Siena Academy Trust; we will always work hard together on the path to success. Within the school and academy, we will strive to enable our children to shine, teaching them that working in partnership together can lead us to amazing and exciting outcomes.

My hope as Head Teacher is that you will visit our site and recognise that the best advert for our school is our children and all of their achievements. As precious to their family at home, they are as precious to the school family of St Francis Xavier. We are proud to know that they have been entrusted in our care and will continue to work in close partnership with families, in order that the children thrive, feel special knowing that Jesus holds us all close in the palm of His hand.

We value every child at St Francis Xavier and will continue to help our boys and girls to grow academically, morally and spiritually. In turn, we will nurture the children to value themselves, knowing that God is calling them to fulfil whatever their talents are.

Our motto is that Jesus holds us in the palm of His hand. We must remember that in this, we have a responsibility to live like Jesus and embrace all things as Jesus would, with love and kindness.

Best wishes,

Mrs J Downes

Head Teacher
