As a Christian school our vision is to serve the families of one of Britain’s most disadvantaged areas by transforming children’s opportunities through the immersion in high quality education. Holly Hill Church School promotes a nurturing environment where every child is enabled to thrive and grow educationally, socially and spiritually. It is with the firm foundations of knowledge, pride and self-belief that our children will develop their group consciousness for the community and the wider world.
‘Life in All its Fullness’ (John 10.10) is the foundation stone for our high expectations of all our families and partners to work together to affect change from within the heart of this community. Children will be encouraged to develop strong aspirations and a desire to make a positive difference in a society faced with continual challenges that require resilience, understanding and a desire for peace.
