Welcome to Roe Farm Primary School
Welcome to our school where we believe that
'TOGETHER WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE'
We are a fairly large school in the Derby suburb of Chaddesden.
Along with some amazing staff, we are fortunate to be well resourced with large classrooms, a separate hall and gym, large playing field, multi-use games area and nurture unit.
At Roe Farm, we provide a deep, meaningful learning experience for
all our pupils that provides the foundations for continued success.
Together we make a difference!
Meet Bamboo, our new panda bear who will be keeping our fantastic, new library safe and tidy.

Notice Board
Check out our new displays showing our vision and values
GRAND OPENING
It is our belief that all children are of equal value, that every child in the school has the right to be taught without being interrupted or disturbed, and that all adults have the right to teach and work with children without having their authority or role undermined. In the school community, all children have a right to feel safe, secure, accepted and valued. The school will ensure that right wherever possible. The children have discussed what they feel to be their rights and have developed 3 simple rules that they believe will make the school a better place for all.
These clearly link with our school
values of:
Respect, Optimism, Enthusiasm, Friendly, Achievers, Ready and Motivated and with our school motto of
“Together we make a difference.”
• Be Safe • Be Respectful • Be Responsible
We had a very special visit from Rammie who came to officially open our two new
Reading Sheds. These will be open to all pupils to sit and enjoy reading a
book during break times and lunchtimes.
