We are a small village school set in a rural community, surrounded by the beautiful Vale of Belvoir countryside. We are proud of our school and its long heritage, serving and educating the children of the village of Waltham and its surrounding areas since at least 1844.

We are part of Rise Multi-Academy Trust. We provide a high standard of teaching and learning within a caring, Christian environment. We aim to nurture and encourage children to be confident and happy individuals who love life and love learning with their friends. Our dedicated staff offer a wide and varied education and will do all they can to help each child reach their full potential, preparing them well for each new step of their school journey.

Our school is very much part of the village and local community, as we strongly believe that we can only achieve the best for our children with everyone working in partnership together. Our community benefits from our Pre-school, Breakfast Club, and After School Club, which support learning and provide a happy, safe environment for children outside of regular school hours. We also have strong links with the village church, parish council, and village hall committee.

Our pupils benefit from the expertise of our visiting music teachers and sports coaches, all of whom teach with us weekly and are very much part of the school community.

We have four classes, all vertically grouped: Holly Class (Reception), Willow Class (Year 1 and 2), Oak Class (Years 3 and 4), and Sycamore Class (Years 5 and 6). As a small school, we enjoy a wonderful family atmosphere, where children regularly work and play together—a really special quality of our school that we are very proud of.

Our vision centres around maximising the potential of all pupils. By working together as a team of staff, governors, parents, community members, and visiting friends of the school, we aim to ensure that learning is exciting, relevant, and fun—and that our children are, above all, happy!
