Dear Parent/ Carer,

I would like to extend a warm welcome to your child and family, as you join the Kelvindale community.  We aim to ensure that you embrace school life and quickly feel a sense of belonging within our community, contributing to its continued success.  It is my hope that all of us will work together to provide a strong foundation for your child’s education, based on high quality learning experiences and wider opportunities. 

We have a set of shared values which we all hold dear: Kindness, Respect, Equality and Trust. The children learn how they should keep true to these values. We promote positive behaviour through these shared values. In Kelvindale Primary School the children are proud of their reputation for being kind and welcoming.  We are often told by visitors that our children are well-mannered, engaging and responsible. They are a credit to their families and to our school.

Children are consulted and are given opportunities to lead school improvement. We have a range of Pupil Voice Groups.  Children, staff and families are involved in identifying the priorities for school improvement.

With our work built on trust, mutual respect and positive relationships, I am confident that we can realise all that we hope to achieve, keeping children and families at the centre of all that we do.

I do hope your time with us at Kelvindale Primary School will create memorable experiences as your child embarks on new adventures of discovery, creativity and exploration. 

Best wishes,

Mrs Gillian Roulston
