God is love, and those who live in love live in God; and God lives in them.

1 John 4: 16

 

We are very proud of our Church Schools in the Caistor Group.

Caistor Church of England and Methodist Primary School

was established in 1957 with the coming together of Caistor Church of England School and Caistor Methodist School - the first such joint school in the country.

The School is "voluntary controlled" -  financed by the Local Authority and open to children of any faith or none - although we are proud of our Christian ethos which permeates all that we do.

We currently have ten classes and around 260 children on roll.

Zoe Hyams is our headteacher and the school is on Southdale in Caistor - telephone 01472 851396.

Grasby All Saints Church of England Primary School

is situted on Vicarage Lane in Grasby.

We have four classes with about 100 children on roll.

Like Caistor, we are a voluntary controlled primary school and are open to children of any faith or none. We value our Christian ethos and offer a caring and well rounded education.

At the end of the Summer Term we said good bye to our headteacher, Mrs. Lynette Edwards, and our  senior teacher, Mrs Maggie Brown as both decided to take (a very early) retirement.  We which them both well and thank them for the huge contribution which they have made to our school. Miss June Richardson join us in Septmber as our new headteacher and Mrs Anna Beedon becomes joins is as a new class teacher. 

The school phone number is 01652 628343
