Welcome to Ashburton Netherby School.

A key feature of our school is the strong sense of co-operation, communication and community spirit among the children, parents and staff. All our students are challenged to achieve to their full potential in a family-oriented atmosphere, which is focused on learning, success and achievement.

Our school’s Vision is “Quality Teaching, Quality Learning,” and this is at the heart of the decisions that we make for our children’s education. Our Vision closely aligns with our Mission Statement whereby we “encourage all to aim high, do their best, be resilient and have fun.” We are committed to providing learning opportunities that cater for students’ needs and interests. We encourage our students to be actively involved in their learning and to achieve personal excellence.

I am proud to lead a team of professionals who are friendly, committed and dedicated to their classes and school. Together we are enthusiastic about the learning opportunities that are available at Ashburton Netherby School. Our teachers cater to the needs of children through a range of varied programmes, teaching techniques and low teacher to student ratios, particularly in the junior school. This ensures children make the best possible start to their education.

Teachers are well-supported by a group of amazing teacher aides, who work with small groups and individuals who require additional support with their learning.

We are extremely proud of what we are achieving together as a school community. Ashburton Netherby School is a place where you will find varied opportunities for your child. The staff and I welcome the opportunity to discuss your child’s education and welfare at any time.

I look forward to getting to know you and trust we can all work together to provide the best educational opportunities for your child.
