St William’s in Trimdon Village is a warm, nurturing and ambitious school where every child is supported to thrive. We recognise the unique potential in every pupil and provide a caring environment where children grow in confidence, curiosity and independence.
This week we were delighted to welcome M&M Productions into school for a spectacular performance of The Wizard of Oz — and what a show it was! The school hall was bursting with fun, laughter and huge smiles from start to finish. With colourful costumes, brilliant acting and plenty of audience participation, the children were completely captivated as Dorothy and her friends followed the yellow brick road. It was a wonderful treat for our pupils and a fantastic way to bring drama, storytelling and imagination to life. Watching the children fully engaged, laughing and enjoying every moment was truly special.
What a brilliant morning we had at St. William's Catholic Primary School, Trimdon, as our talented Class 2 pupils took to the stage for their Great Fire of London assembly! The children truly brought this famous historical event to life through fantastic singing, confident acting, and beautifully presented work that made everyone in the audience beam with pride.
We are incredibly proud to celebrate the achievements of our amazing St William's Catholic Primary School basketball squad, who enjoyed a fantastic day representing the school at the Go Well Primary School Basketball Shield and Cup.
