St Dominic Savio Catholic Primary School > About Us

St Dominic Savio School is a Catholic Voluntary Aided primary school in the Catholic Diocese of Portsmouth for children aged between 4 and 11 years. The school serves the parishes of St John Bosco, Our Lady of Peace and Blessed Dominic Barberi, St Thomas More and the areas of Woodley, Winnersh, Charvil, Twyford, Wargrave and East Reading.

Our school exists primarily because of the commitment of the parents, staff and governors to the Catholic Church. We believe that gospel values should be evident in all we say and do in the school. Religious Education is not just an allotted segment in the timetable. We have adopted a motto which reflects this belief - Serve The Lord With Joy.

We aim to provide a happy and caring Catholic/Christian environment where the spiritual and moral development of the children is as important as their intellectual, physical and aesthetic development.

The school occupies a spacious and pleasant site at the rear of the Parish Church of St John Bosco in Western Avenue, Woodley. It has its own playing fields, playgrounds and nature area with pond, situated adjacent to Woodford Park.
