Prendergast Community Primary School

Our School
Prendergast Primary School opened in September 2005. It was formed by the
amalgamation of Prendergast Infants and Nursery School with Prendergast Junior
School. From September 2005 until January 2008 the school operated from two
sites, one in Stokes Avenue and the other in Back Lane, Prendergast. A new building
was partially completed and opened in January 2008. This is built on the adjacent
site to the former infant building. The new building was completed by September
2008.
We, the governors and staff, will look to work with parents, pupils and the wider
community we serve to provide the very best standards of education for our pupils.
Our School Logo
As we are a new school we have a new school logo. A children’s competition was held
to design the new logo. The final design was a compilation of two entries by Lucy
with Milly Tudor and Noah Harvatt. The ideas from their designs were taken by
Cheryl John of Sunflower Design, she created our new school logo which is on the
front cover of this prospectus.
