Welcome to Nateby Primary School….

a quiet village school?…… We don’t think so!

The Nateby Ethos

Nateby Primary School is at the centre of the Nateby community. The Team at Nateby aims to provide a full and rich curriculum which excites and motivates all pupils. Each child is seen as an individual. We believe that it is the duty of the school to ensure that each individual’s needs are met both educationally and personally; that each individual should be supported in achieving their full potential and develop in to confident, responsible members of our society; that all pupils aspire to and are able to succeed in the modern, multi-cultural country they live in.

Our Aims:

We aim to ensure all Nateby Pupils are confident learners and global citizens. We will achieve this by:
Instilling a life-long love of learning and a passion for knowledge.
Nurturing our pupils so that they are proud and confident.
Celebrating success so that children feel valued.
Creating a positive environment where children flourish and are safe and happy.
Developing resilient, well balanced, healthy pupils who are caring considerate citizens.

Pop-up Pool comes to Nateby

We have had a two week intensive course of swimming lessons for every pupil in school. The children have thoroughly enjoyed it! Many of them, the younger pupils especially, have gone from little or no swimming experience, using floats and ‘noodle’ to being able to swim proficiently, dive for sinkers and perform floats! Well done to them all!

Towerwood Residentials

Year Four, Five and Six went away on their residential trip to Tower Wood. The children took part in lots of activities including kayaking, caving, tree climbing, ghyll scrambling, high ropes and many more, which helped them to work as a team or to test their own skills. Great fun was had by all, including the teachers!
