Welcome to Water Street Primary School

Nestled in the heart of Skipton, we are a vibrant and welcoming primary school where every child is encouraged to grow, learn, and thrive.  We are proud to be part of Skipton’s vibrant community, and endeavour to embrace all of the wonderful opportunities that we are lucky enough to have on our doorstep.

At Water Street, every child has the chance to contribute, share their ideas, and work together as a team. We foster a strong sense of respect for one another, encourage curiosity through enquiry, and inspire our students to aspire to be their very best, both in and out of the classroom.

We believe that learning should always be enjoyable, filled with laughter and full of opportunities for growth. Through teamwork, support, and a sense of community, we ensure that every child feels valued and confident, ready to succeed and explore the exciting opportunities around them.

As a school, we offer a wide range of enrichment activities that allow our children to explore their passions, discover new interests, and develop their skills in fun and exciting ways. 

We look forward to working alongside you to support your child to become a happy, confident learner, prepared to take on everything the wider world has to offer!

If you need more information about Water Street or clarification of any details on our website, please contact us.  Our school administrator, Mrs Daguzan, will be happy to help with any of your queries.
