Welcome to St Mary’s Church of England School – Kirkby Lonsdale

Nestled on the edge of Kirkby Lonsdale, our school takes advantage of being situated in a small, historic market town in the beautiful Lune Valley. Kirkby Lonsdale is an ideal place to live on the edge of North Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria, and our school has a long tradition of high quality education in the area. We hope our website provides you with a snapshot of our unique school. Whether you are a prospective parent or a parent of a child in school, welcome. It is with great pride that I introduce our school – I hope you find our website helpful in giving you an insight into our school. I think our school is a very special place and, in discovering our school, we hope you will think the same. Please contact Mrs S Lyall, our School Administrator or Mrs C Billington, our School Business Manager, in our school office, if you would like to know more about our school. I extend a warm welcome to you from St Mary’s Church of England School.

– Brian Jones – Head Teacher
