Welcome to Chollerton Church of England Voluntary Aided First School.

Be the best you can be in a safe and loving, Christian family through: challenge, inspiration, inclusion, nurture, happiness and respect.

Inspired by the Parable of the Lost Sheep, our vision is for every child to be the best they can be within a safe, loving, and inclusive Christian family. We recognise, cherish, and pursue every unique individual so that they may flourish and experience life in all its fullness.

In the Parable of the Lost Sheep, Jesus reveals a God who values every individual unconditionally. The shepherd does not settle for the safety of the majority; he actively seeks out the one who is lost, vulnerable, or wandering.

"Be the best you can be": The shepherd restores the lost sheep to its proper place, allowing it to thrive. In our school, this means providing an ambitious, holistic curriculum where every child's unique talents are unlocked.

"In a safe and loving Christian family": The shepherd carries the sheep home on his shoulders, an act of pure, protective love. Our school community acts as this protective fold—a place of safety, radical hospitality, and deep pastoral care where no child is left behind or overlooked.

When you are known and cherished for who you are, in a safe and loving family, you can thrive to be the best that you can be!
