A Message of Welcome

Discover New Hinksey CE Primary – a vibrant, nurturing school where curiosity is celebrated, individuality is valued, and children grow into confident, happy learners.

Our ‘village school’ is a unique haven in the heart of a throbbing city where we blend the charm of a close-knit community with the diverse opportunities that urban life offers.

Our team of excellent teachers and support staff are dedicated to nurturing every child’s potential. They bring passion, creativity, and expertise into the classroom, and they foster curiosity and a love of learning.

We offer a wide-ranging curriculum that includes art and music for all, ensuring that every child has the chance to explore their creative talents. We are proud of our diverse community supporting children from various backgrounds, including those who are disadvantaged, have English as an additional language, or have special educational needs.

At New Hinksey we want our children to thrive in body, heart and spirit, in alignment with our school’s vision, that is inspired by the words of Jesus:

“I have come that you may have life in all its fullness” (John 10:10)
