Orton Wistow Primary School

Orton Wistow Primary School Welcome to the Orton Wistow Primary School page. The safety, support, happiness and education of the children who attend our school are our priorities.

Our PRIDE code (Polite, Respect, Independence, Do Your Best and Everybody Matters) underpins everything we do at Orton Wistow Primary School. It is these values that ensure our pupils become well-rounded citizens who will go on to make a positive contribution to society. Along with our Learning Tools (Responsibility, Resilience, Perseverance, Concentration and Teamwork) we instil in our pupils a love of learning that they will take with them into the future. We continue to build on our success each year, never standing still and always looking for what will make a positive difference for our pupils. Our curriculum reflects the needs of our learners and has been developed by the experienced and passionate staff that work here. We focus on the key knowledge, skills, understanding and vocabulary the children will need in each subject, building on the previous year’s learning as they move through the school. The amazing community and dedication from all groups associated with the school - staff, governors, parents and the pupils - contribute to our aim of developing the whole child within and beyond the curriculum. We work together to motivate our learners, always encouraging their creativity and curiosity.

Koalas and Nighthawks were joined by lots of family members today for their 2CanLearn session. They spent the time making worry dolls from sticks and wool. Thank you to everyone that came into school today, some lessons are a lot smoother when you have a lot of extra pairs of hands!

Orton Wistow proudly attended the YDP Swimming Gala today, where they represented the school with fantastic effort, determination, and sportsmanship throughout. Every swimmer gave their all in each race, showing great teamwork and resilience. Their hard work truly paid off, as they achieved an impressive second-place finish overall. A brilliant performance from everyone involved—well done to the whole team!

A huge thank you to FOWS for raising the money to help school purchase the two new OPAL sheds. Without these storage units, it would be very hard to make the project work and we are getting excited about phase two!
