Learn | Love | Thrive
Nurturing every child to flourish...
From the moment a child joins Star of the Sea, we provide a nurturing and supporting environment where they grow in confidence, develop independence and discover a love of learning.
Star of the Sea offers more than strong academic foundations. We believe children thrive when they feel safe, valued and encouraged to be themselves, which is why we focus on the whole child. By combining high expectations with excellent pastoral care, we support every pupil to succeed socially, emotionally and academically. Through a broad, engaging curriculum, enriching extracurricular opportunities and a strong sense of community, we equip children with the skills self-belief and resilience they need to move forward positively and fulfil their potential.
WELCOME FROM OUR HEADTEACHER
Mrs K DiMambro
Welcome to our school. My name is Kathryn DiMambro and I am very proud to be the Headteacher of Star of the Sea Primary School. Star of the Sea Primary school is a place where all members of our school family play an important role in shaping our future and ensuring all can reach their potential, living out their faith.
Star of the Sea has a very special place in my heart and I have been part of this school community for many years. I do everything in my power to make this school the best school it can be.
We are part of the Bishop Bewick Catholic Education Trust, alongside 38 other primary and high schools.
