    Welcome to The Gainsborough Parish Church

    At Parish, we value each person as they are, seeing every member of our school family as a precious, unique individual and treating them with dignity.  Seeking first to understand through the building of relationships, we live in a community of hope.  We aspire to enable each person to be a curious learner, inspired to develop the knowledge and wisdom to make the world a better place.  We strive to encourage all to fulfil their God-given potential, having a confidence in transformation for the better.

    What a fantastic afternoon we had yesterday with Playground Proms! The whole school was captivated by an engaging, interactive classical music performance! The children (and staff!) thoroughly enjoyed joining in and learning about the different instruments. A huge thank you to Playground Proms and Lincolnshire Music Service for such a memorable experience – we loved every minute of it!

    What a fantastic start to the new term in EYFS! The children have jumped straight into our exciting new Under the Sea theme and have been loving every moment of their learning adventures. Learning about the ocean and exploring ocean creatures, creating beautiful sea-inspired artwork to imaginative play and hands-on discovery activities. Curiosity and enthusiasm have been flowing throughout the classroom. It's been wonderful to see so many smiling faces, eager learners, growing in confidence as we dive into this exciting topic together. #EYFS #UnderTheSea #ParishProud

    Attendance Matters! Just a quick reminder about how important regular attendance is for our children. Every day in school countsmissing lessons can make it harder for them to keep up, build confidence, and reach their full potential. By arriving on time and attending every day possible, they develop good habits that will benefit them for life. Let's work together to support them in making the most of every school day! Be on time Be present Be ready to learn Thank you for your continued support! Lincoln Anglican Academy Trust

    Our Year 6 children have thoroughly enjoyed our art project this term! They explored photography by using iPads to capture images of natural objects before learning how to edit and enhance their photos using technology. The children then developed their creativity further by creating artwork inspired by photography, including recreations of The Scream and experimenting with their own photo-realistic self-portraits.
