From the Kingfisher Community Primary School
Welcome to Kingfisher Primary School's website on behalf of all staff, governors, parents and children. Being the head of school makes me feel incredibly proud, and I love working with such a lively community. My aim for all of us who are members of the Kingfisher community is to work collaboratively to provide our children with the best possible opportunities through proud traditions, wide horizons and high achievements. As a member of the Griffin Schools Trust, we assist, motivate, and encourage our kids so they can develop the skills they need to be productive members of society. We believe in a close and trusting relationship between home and school in the interests of the children and I hope our website provides you with a rich understanding of our school and culture. We welcome any inquiries, remarks, worries, or suggestions you may have that will aid us in becoming even better.
