‘Let Your Light Shine’

Matthew 5:14 – 16

¹⁴ “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. ¹⁵ Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. ¹⁶ In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Welcome to Lambourn CofE Primary School. This website gives you just a glimpse into the rich and diverse life of this distinctive school – we are a school with both a preschool and a nursery providing a distinctively Christian education for our children. Situated in the stunning Lambourn Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the school grounds are extensive, providing plenty of room for outdoor experiences and learning, we even have our own heated swimming pool!

Our school is a place where Staff, Governors, Excalibur- our Multi Academy Trust, our Church and Local Community work closely together to ensure we put the children at the heart of everything we do.  The children come first, they are central to every decision we make. We strive to ensure our children are happy and successful; they grow, during their time with us, to be ambitious, aspirational and resilient. Our talented teachers inspire and motivate children, encouraging scholarship, intellectual curiosity, independent thought and effective learning behaviours to enable them to ‘Let their Light Shine’. Staff work with energy and enthusiasm delivering a varied and creative curriculum that makes use of our incredible outdoor environment and the resources within the wider community. We use a variety of motivational learning resources and teaching approaches. All of this makes Lambourn CofE Primary School an exceptional place to learn and work.

We are proud that our children learn to behave with integrity. We are committed to the development of our children in the fullest sense. We succeed in combining academic achievement with an outstanding range of opportunities through our engaging and exciting curriculum.

Our school prides itself on our Christian Vision and Values and the warm and nurturing relationships that this fosters within the school community and beyond. Our Christian values of Love, Integrity, Grit, Hope and Trust underpin all we do. They are rooted in our Christian Vision and support us as we help our children learn the key concepts and knowledge that they will need to rise to the challenges, opportunities and responsibilities that future life and learning will bring.

Our children are seen as individuals and our aim is to enable them to see their potential as unlimited. Children at Lambourn begin their journey as a learner as soon as they enter our school, developing the knowledge and attributes to become independent, skilled problem solvers, engaged in their learning and taking responsibility for their role in their own learning. Our goal is to develop children’s independence and instil a love of learning which will last a lifetime.

I hope you will want to visit us, experience our school and talk with our wonderful children. The best way to find out more is to come and see for yourself what makes our school a special place to learn – contact the school office to arrange your visit [email protected]
