Welcome to Verwood Church of England First School   and Nursery

'Be the light and hope'

On behalf of our children, staff and Local School Committee, I am delighted to welcome you to our amazing school! 

As a Church of England First School, our vision is based on the Biblical message that Jesus is the light of the world and we are called to share that light (Matthew 5:14). We describe hope as having confidence in God's promises, knowing that he will never let us down (Hebrews 10:23).  This means that we all aspire to shine our own light in everything we do - at school, in our local community and within the wider world.  We are truly proud of all we achieve, making the most of every learning opportunity and helping each other along the way.

Our staff team are passionate about providing our children with the knowledge and skills they need to flourish, both now and in the future; through an excellently designed curriculum, fantastic pastoral support and enriching learning experiences that capture their imagination and nurture their curiosity. We are a school family, committed to working in partnership with your family, to ensure that everyone feels welcome and supported at every stage of your child's educational journey.

We hope you enjoy exploring our website, although this will only give you a small snapshot of all that we offer. All information contained within this website is available in paper copy on request from the school office.
