School Ethos and Values
Our Mission Statement: "Together towards excellence with Christ as our Guide."
Our new school values spell out the word 'ENRICH':
Enrich means to improve or boost the quality or value of something, to make it better.
Education
To love learning.
Nurture
To care and protect something while it is growing
Resilience
Toughness; to overcome something and get back up.
Imagination
To be creative and resourceful.
Christ as our guide… and Catholic
To love God and our neighbours as ourselves, following our Catholic faith.
Healthy, in mind, body and spirit.
To look after our thoughts, our fitness and our beliefs
Our shared vision is to create an outstanding world class Catholic primary school, with our faith, our families and our futures at its core.
What does St. Richard's Mean to our Children?
The pictures below discuss the views of our children and what being part of St. Richard's means to them.
The work of the school is underpinned by the Governors as well as our two Catholic Churches in Dover, St Paul's and Our Lady of Dover.
