The Four Porpoises
The Donaldson Report focuses on developing children as:
- ambitious, capable learners, ready to learn throughout their lives
- enterprising, creative contributors, ready to play a full part in life and work
- ethical, informed citizens of Wales and the world
- healthy, confident individuals, ready to lead fulfilling lives as valued members of society.

Some of our Year 6 pupils talk about our school's take on the Four Purposes being introduced in the new curriculum.
The Four Porpoises
The school has adapted the Purposes in to the characters of four Porpoises. We then plan all the work around the four Porpoises and we have a book to illustrate how they contribute to our learning.
Amber - Ambitious and Capable
Ethel - Ethical and Informed
Heath - Healthy and Confident
Richie - Enterprising and Creative
Our school values are at the core of everything we do. They underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our pupils as confident, happy citizens.
