Virtual Tour
Our school building is small and perfectly formed!
In the beginning the classrooms all opened out into a square open-air cloister around a central garden. Now the cloister is double glazed and carpeted, while the garden itself has benches so that it can be used as an outdoor classroom when the weather is warm enough. Our Lady’s Quiet Garden is a sheltered spot with frogs, birds and mini-beasts making their home there. A statue of Our Lady stands in its centre and a stone bird bath is our reminder of our well-loved school caretaker, Mr Trevor Ridley.
