School Vision
Let everything you do be done with love
(1 COR 16:14)
Welcome to
At St Nicholas we have a dedicated and experienced team who, with the support of our governors, ensure that St Nicholas is a happy, vibrant and thriving school where children Learn, Achieve and Grow, Together.
Through our bespoke Global Explorer Curriculum we are committed to educating the ‘whole child’ and value every child for their unique gifts. We provide a safe environment to promote their development academically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. We aim to make learning fun, exciting and purposeful providing memorable experiences which ignite curiosity, inspire ambition and build confidence.

Where to next?
Aspirational day today! Key stage 1 enjoyed role playing a variety of careers from being a vet, a builder, working in a post office and garden centre. Children in Key Stage 2 thought about leadership and how to be a role model as well as learning how they would change and grow as they get older.
'The best kids show I've ever seen!' Was how one parent described the final performance of the Adventures of SuperStan. We are enormously proud of all of our Ks2 performers. You were amazing! #wearecreative
A massive thank you to the The Bridge Youth Project who treated the Year 6s to a visit from an ice cream van yesterday as well as gifting them bags full of goodies to celebrate their transition to secondary school. We are so blessed to work with such a generous organisation. Thank you to our Chaplain Daniel for the wonderful surprise.
Year 5 are having a fantastic time watching the Life of Christ at Wintershall Estate. A really special trip and an opportunity to join the actors on stage and be part of the action!
Our annual DSAT year 6 Leavers Service was held last week at Salisbury Cathedral. A lovely opportunity for our leavers to reflect on their journey so far and to consider how to continue to shine their light brightly as they move on to their secondary schools.
This term our Big Ideas is Aspirational and our Christian Value is Thankfulness. This encourages us to reflect on the year we have had and to look forward with excitement towards the future.
Learning beyond the classroom Learning, Achieving and Growing together every step of the way. In our outdoor spaces, curiosity grows, friendships flourish, and every child shines. #LearningOutdoors #GrowingTogether #SchoolLife #stnicholasporton
