Welcome to Lemington Riverside

Welcome to a primary school that dares to be different and celebrates its uniqueness…

We are Lemington Riverside Primary School – an inclusive, vibrant school at the heart of our community, overlooking the beautiful River Tyne. We welcome children from age 3 to 11 and are a one-form-entry school, meaning there is one class in each year group.

Our school is a magnificent Edwardian building, with spacious classrooms, break out spaces, libraries, ICT facilities, a sensory room and an exciting outdoor environment. We also have a community hub on site, providing additional activities, services and support to our children, families and the wider community.

What’s Happening...

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everybody who took the time to come along to our showcase event this afternoon.
The children had worked really hard to build up to this event and were so proud to share with you their ambitions for the future!
Thank you for being kind, thoughtful guests and engaging in our event.
We hope you enjoyed visiting school today - we loved having you with us!
