At Malborough with South Huish C of E (VC) Primary School we aim to provide a safe, happy, caring and stimulating environment where all the children and adults feel they make a contribution and are valued as individuals so they may flourish and grow. We strive for every child to recognise and achieve their full potential, so that they can make their best contribution to society and grow strong roots to enable them to fly onwards in their life journey so they may live life to all its fullness.

Our school was built in 1872 and includes four classrooms, a library, a music room, playground, spiritual garden and an outdoor heated swimming pool. Every child benefits from swimming lessons throughout the summer term. Hot lunches are prepared daily by our School Cook.

Within our small village school family, we aim to provide a safe and structured environment where children's enthusiasm to learn is encouraged and where the unique personality of each child is valued and nurtured. We aim to develop and extend children's English and Maths skills alongside their creative talents and their social and spiritual understanding of the world, feeding not just their minds but also their souls. We aim to equip children with the knowledge and confidence necessary to play a full part in society. We actively work together to promote awareness for the need to follow a healthy lifestyle and to take part in physical exercise.

We have weekly Forest School sessions where the children enjoy learning about our outdoor environment with our Forest School Leader. We provide rich experiences and take personal development and extra curricular activities as high priority, as we feel within our rural context this is key to our vision in supporting and nurturing our roots to grow into independent, well rounded individuals.

Within the South Hams Federation, our intent is to provide a nurturing space that supports our children's wellbeing by providing and implementing positive, child-led experiences in a natural setting, the impact of which will help foster trait such as resilience, confidence and independence and develop motivation, co-operation, decision-making and social skills.

Our Vision

At Malborough with South Huish Primary School, we aim to serve our Community by providing an education of the highest quality within the context of Christian beliefs and practice.

Strong leadership enables us to provide a broad and balanced curriculum that fosters all elements of children’s growth as learners. This is supported by a clear vision, an embedded set of Christian values and aspirations and a strong Christian character; where children are encouraged to become resilient and understand that forgiveness and reconciliation are possible, and that compassion and hope allow our children to cope wisely when things and people go wrong.

John 10:10: “I have come in order that you might have life-Life in all its fullness”

Our Mission

At Malborough with South Huish Primary School we put the children at the heart of everything that we do. We work to support and ensure all pupils and staff flourish and excel in wisdom, knowledge and skills, for their practical and spiritual development

The staff will contribute to develop the schools ethos – ‘Let your spirit shine!’ by:

Providing a secure and stimulating environment at all times, that fosters wisdom, hope, community and dignity

Providing a welcoming, nurturing environment, in which mutual respect and forgiveness is modelled by adults and children alike

Enabling children to flourish and experience life in all it’s fullness, regardless of their background or starting point to become confident, happy successful learners

We will support our pupils to understand the difference between right and wrong

We will provide and foster confidence, delight and discipline in seeking wisdom, knowledge, truth and understanding the skills needed to shape life.

Our values will be promoted through daily collective worship and our regular church services.

This is our school Prayer:

O God, we pray that thy blessing may rest upon our school and all that teach or learn in it.

Help us to do our work with all our might.

Make us proud of this school to which we belong.

And may we one day go forth from it. Ready to serve those and our fellow men.

For the sake of Jesus Christ, our Lord

Amen.

These values have been chosen by the children. They chose:

Family, Support, Respect, Love, Belief. Together they help us remember to ‘Let your Spirit shine’

Matthew 5:16: “In the same way your light must shine before people, so that they will see the good things you do and praise your father in heaven”
