Our team made a valiant effort at Bush Hill Park School with great teamsmanship and impressive skills. Well done boys!

Our Forest School sessions have now finished. A range of children from Year 4 and 5 had an hour and a half every Tuesday for 6 weeks under the guidance of Melissa from Twiggles Explorers learning about bush craft and the great outdoors. But, more than that, they learned important life skills and developed their communication, self-esteem and confidence through games and literacy development. The grand finale, however, occurred in the final week, in which the children took part in a campfire on which they cooked marshmallows!   

Reception had their first Liturgy, a welcoming event held in our school hall. The Liturgy was presented by Father Gerry, who lead the welcoming Liturgy for reception. They received a special gift from our parish priest that contained a rosary and a Daffodil bulb given to them to grow. 

We thank all the parents and Father Gerry for attending.

Well done to the Year 5 and 6 boys who played their first league matches on Wednesday 4th October. 

They played 3 matches; Meridian Angel, Galliard and Raglan.   We won our first match 3-0 and lost to Galliard 1-0 and Raglan 2-0.

Everyone played brilliantly, and the goalie made some great saves! A fantastic effort from everyone in the team!

A big! Well done to KS1 in winning 3rd place in the Panathlon Challenge event.

St Edmund's recently celebrated the World Day of Cultural Diversity with an incredible event that left everyone feeling enlightened and joyous. The entire school community came together to embrace the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our global society. It was a day filled with immersive experiences, engaging activities, and delightful presentations that showcased the beauty and uniqueness of different countries.

Throughout the day, students immersed themselves in the traditions of the country they had been assigned. The exploration included learning about the unique dances, arts, and culinary delights that define each culture. 

The highlight of the day was the much-anticipated assembly where each year group took the stage to present their findings. The enthusiasm and pride radiated from the students as they confidently shared fascinating facts, showcased traditional dances, and displayed stunning artwork inspired by their chosen countries. 

Thank you to Mrs. Nicola and Miss Virasami who organised and led the day.
