From the Whitefriars Primary School
In my capacity as headteacher of Whitefriars Primary School, let me convey a sincere thank you for visiting our website.
In September 2017, our school became a primary school, and I am honoured to serve as the institution's inaugural headmaster.
We merged the former Whitefriars Junior School, which opened in January 1973, and Whitefriars Infant School, which opened in September 1975, and are located in Rushden, a small town in East Northamptonshire.
We all have a great deal of pride in our school and our lovely kids.
We are dedicated to giving each and every one of our students the best education we can.
We are aware that each student is encouraged to grow a vibrant, inquisitive mind at our school, which is a joyful, exciting, and appealing atmosphere.
We hope that this website will provide you with all the information you require as well as an insight into life at Whitefriars Primary.
We are aware that our school is an excellent setting for students to begin their education.
