The Vale Primary School
At The Vale, we are committed to ensuring every child strives for excellence. Here we promote a passion for life-long learning through an enriched curriculum that is active, purposeful and challenging in a nurturing environment. There are also many extracurricular opportunities in sport, drama productions, outdoor learning and music.
A central pillar of our curriculum is the effective implementation of the Thrive approach, which supports our children to have the mental health and well-being to be successful learners and well-rounded citizens for the 21st century.
All of us at The Vale are incredibly proud of our children and their behaviours for learning that demonstrate our Vale Learner qualities:
Being Caring
Being Safe
Being Respectful
Being Ready
Being Resilient
Being Reflective
and Embracing Challenge
Our motto 'Inspiring All' is reflected in our commitment from staff, school standard board members, parents and children all working to create a school where together we can achieve and flourish.
