Mrs Trathen's Headteacher's Welcome

On behalf of all the staff, governors and children, I would like to extend a warm welcome to The Haven CE Methodist Primary School.  I hope that you find this website a useful guide to the opportunities and challenges we can offer.

We are very proud of our school, which has a friendly, caring and Christian ethos 'God in all we Do', with a highly motivated team who are committed to helping all our pupils reach their full potential. A distinctive feature of the school is its friendly atmosphere that enables everyone, from pupils to staff, to feel valued, supported and nurtured, guided by our Christian Community Code: Be Kind, Keep Safe, Aim High and Keep on Going.

Our purpose as an educational community to provide a rich and stimulating Christian environment in which each child can learn, achieve, and experience success.  All the children are encouraged to become independent, confident pupils who show respect for all members of the school community.  The Staff and I believe that a strong partnership between home and school is essential to foster a love of learning.  We, therefore encourage close contact between home and school, recognise, and value the contributions you as parents and carers make in educating your child.
