Yesterday, our Year 3 classes led a beautiful celebration in the hall for our school community. We were joined by parents, carers and Father Walter from our Parish Church, who joined the Year 3's in leading our liturgy. The children sang, smiled and read their lines so eloquently. 

Well done Year 3, and thank you to the staff who helped organise the occasion. 

Thank you for all your kind donations. We received a very generous amount of goods, which were then collected by our Parish Church and will be used to support our local community. 

St Edmund's are excited to introduce Non-Stop Action who are a specialist sports company and delivering our outdoor PE curriculum.

The whole St Edmund's community was sad to hear the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II. Her dedication to the UK, other realms and territories is unparalleled, and we thank her for her service. 

Children attended a special assembly this morning to learn about and celebrate her life and over the coming weeks will have some special lessons dedicated to her achievements as well as learning about our new King. 

We are delighted to announce that St. Edmund's Catholic Primary School, have achieved the School Games Platinum Mark Award for the 2021/22 academic year.

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward and recognise the school's engagement (provision and uptake) in the School Games against a national benchmark and to celebrate keeping young people active.

We are delighted to have been recognised for our success. Our physical activity and school sports achievements this Year include: Winning the Netball and Girls Football League and representing Tottenham Hotspur at the Premier League Primary Stars Tournament at Vicarage Road. We have also participated in numerous events throughout the Year run by the Enfield PE Team, intra events in school all of which ended with a special week when all children participated in Sports Day.

We are incredibly proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of physical activity and school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our events possible.

Huge congratulations to all at the school and Mrs Spinazzola who has led PE across the school this year!

Earlier this week, a selection of children from across our school were chosen to go and visit Tate Britain. They travelled via public transport into London and experienced just some of what our wonderful city has to offer. Miss Sinclair and Mrs Pope, who organised the trip, brought some of our most talented artists to explore the Tate and continue developing their drawing skills.

All the children had a fantastic day, which I am sure will last with them for years to come. 

Well done all for representing the school so well!
