'Dream it, believe it, achieve it.'

At Manaccan Primary School & Nursery, we strive to develop respectful and confident young people, who are curious about the world around them and are equipped with the knowledge, skills and values to have choice over their own futures.

We want to celebrate diverse experiences, broaden horizons and prepare our children to thrive in an ever-changing world. Inspired to ‘dream it, believe it, achieve it’, we want our children to go on to pursue their aspirations and make a positive contribution within and beyond their unique local community.

Our three school values are friendship, kindness and respect. These were selected by the pupils, staff and parents and underpin all that we do in school. Each value is also linked to a story book.

At Manaccan Primary School we also have three School Houses. Each child belongs to a House and this acts as their family throughout their time in school. When selecting our house names, we considered our location. We are near water, sand and the famous Goonhilly satellite station. We selected the words swim, sand and star and translated them into Ancient Greek: ZALI, AMMOS and ASTRON. Each House also has a House Captain - they are responsible for leading their House throughout the school year.
