Welcome

St John Fisher is a school for children between the ages of 4 -11 yrs. We believe that every child should be given the opportunity to flourish and develop to their full potential. Here they can acquire skills to become confident and articulate, well equipped to meet the challenges of a fast changing world.

We are committed to the development of the individual enabling every pupil to fulfill their potential, not only in their academic studies but also in sports, drama, music or wherever their talents may lie.

We believe that it takes a whole community to educate a child, so we aim to work in partnership with parents. We are very proud of our St John Fisher Parent Teacher and Friends Association (PTFA), which organises many social and fundraising events. As a Catholic school we have strong links with the parishes of St Mary's, South Wigston and Immaculate Conception, Oadby.

We strive to offer a high quality education across the full curriculum, including many extra-curricular activities.

We are always delighted to welcome visitors and look forward to meeting you.

God bless,

Mr. A. Gallagher

Headteacher

Mission Statement

'Follow me I will make you fishers of men'
(Taken from the coat of arms of Saint John Fisher).

 

In our school, we want to follow the example of Saint John Fisher. He was known for his holiness, his faithfulness to the Church and for his learning. He Joined together learning and faith, he was known as a scholar and helped to open two colleges at Cambridge. We will do the same and work to the best of our ability for success in all our lessons, within a catholic environment.

 

The children's own words are:

 

We will put our faith into action by helping the poor in Leicester and the Third World. In our school each child is trusted to help each other in their unique abilities and this is shown through caring.

 

'Learn how to love like Jesus

We love one another as Jesus loves us.

Learn as best you can and help one another to learn too.

Listen to everyone and love them every day.

Don't fall out, be nice to one another'.
