Life at St. Teresa's

Still image for this video

Welcome to St Teresa's RC Primary School. We are a Voluntary Aided Primary school for 3-11 year olds based in Stretford, Manchester. 

Our school mission statement is:

 

At St. Teresa's, we believe every child is unique and special to God. We aim to inspire each of them to fulfil their true potential and reach their goals as confident, independent citizens of the future.
Guided by Saint Teresa, we are loving to learn and learning to love

 

We think this encapsulates the education the children receive at our school.  We hope your child will become an enthusiastic and lifelong learner.  Our principle value of Christ centred love underpins everything that goes on in our school and we hope this helps our children to become happy, confident learners who feel loved and valued.

 

St. Teresa's school values are:

 

Respect - We respect and trust each other

Grow - We grow in love and faith

Achieve - We strive to be the best we can be

 

Our school prayer is said everyday by all members of our school community.  It too highlights the  mission  of our family school community "our little gem " where we strive to live a life of love sharing the Good News and following Saint Teresa's "Little Way ".

 

This is our school,

​Let peace dwell here.

Let the rooms be full of contentment.

Let love abide here.

Love of one another,

love of learning,

love of life itself,

and love of God.

Let us remember that as many hands build a house,

so many hearts make our school.

 

At the heart of the curriculum at St. Teresa's is the central Gospel Value of  Love, 

 

Love
We love life, learning, God and each other

By showing and sharing God's love for us all we hope the children at St. Teresa's will:

  • Love and care for each other , promoting a feeling of togetherness

  • Make others feel safe, valued and at ease.

  • Notice when people need comfort and support

  • Pick each other up and support each other

  • Be generous to others

  • Live their faith and follow Gospel values 

  • Be pleased for others’ success and achievements

  • Celebrate everyone’s individuality 

  • Support others when they make mistakes

  • Always try their best and have confidence in themselves
