Given the Prime Minister's announcement last night, I'm pleased to say we will be welcoming all children back to school on Monday 8th March. I will be sending out further information next week. I'm sure that parents and pupils will be relieved that they only have 9 more days (including today) of remote learning. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued support and perseverance during these challenging times.
I'm counting down the days until we are all back together as one school family.
Kind regards,
Miss L D'Agostini
Headteacher
In light of the Prime Minister's statement this evening, school will be closed with immediate effect to the majority of children until at least mid-February.
Further information will be sent out tomorrow regarding remote learning and school being open to children of critical workers/vulnerable children, taking effect from Wednesday 6th January.
Kind regards,
Miss L D'Agostini
Headteacher

Our whole school nativity, which normally would take place in our parish church, St. Thomas of Canterbury Catholic Church, this year has been filmed and edited in school. I hope it will bring you joy. The children certainly rose to the challenge in retelling the story of Jesus' birth helping us to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas.
Please click here to watch our whole school nativity.
As of today, Wednesday 2nd December 2020, Kent is placed into Tier 3 - very high alert.
Please see attached poster detailing the rules which we all need to follow to keep everyone safe.
Please click here for an important letter from the NHS Immunisation Service (Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust) regarding your child's annual nasal flu spray. The Kent and Medway School Immunisation Team will be visiting our school on Thursday 19th November 2020.
All children are invited to be vaccinated this year. Parents are required to complete an online consent form marking whether they consent or decline consent. The link is enclosed within the letter and the closing date is Monday 16th November 2020 at midnight.
