Our school is a place where all are welcomed and invited to build a community where God’s love is shared to enable positive engagement, action and education; allowing children, staff and pupils to be inspired to raise their eyes, open their minds and explore the world God created. Participating in God’s mission of love to both the local community and the wider world, we live fully as global neighbours. This work has been externally recognised and led us to be awarded the Bronze Global Neighbours Award by Christian Aid.
We are located on the west side of Darlington in the Cockerton Village area. We are a single form entry school and accommodate around 210 children in school. We have a wide catchment and we take children from all around the surrounding area and we feed into all the local secondary schools.
If you would like to visit us or would like more information about the school, please get in touch with the school office.
We're in the running!!

We took House Team Assembly to the classes this week as the hall is out of use as the nursery gets built. The House Captains gave the weekly announcements and children heard all about the fundraising bookmarks. We ran out of time for Classes 5 and 6 so will catch up with them on Monday.
We also had a very special visitor in school today - Edith the 8 month old tortoise!

Recently, a group of children came to show me the 264 bookmarks they have handmade and laminated to sell to raise money for school!
I had no idea about this and was speechless for quite sometime! Their initiative, hardwork and love for their school has overwhelmed me.
Please support their project from Monday - the bookmarks are lovely and there are so many different designs.

An email has been sent to all parents and carers to explain some temporary changes to how the children in Years 1 to 6 enter and leave school from tomorrow due to work starting to create our new nursery classroom and facilities.
In case you don't have a chance to see the email, additional staff will be outside at 8.50am and 3.15pm to make sure everyone knows what the changes are.
Thank you.

The children have been on quite a roller coaster in Collective Worship this week - from thinking about all the emotions the disciples went through during the events of Holy Week and the 40 days after Jesus's death and resurrection to a drone and a water blaster showing that what goes up must come down!
As we prepare for Pentecost, the children have been thinking about the anticipation the disciples must have felt as they waited for the Holy Spirit after Jesus ascended to heaven.
Try our 'Anticipation Challenge' at home using this video - it's harder than you think!!!
