Well done to the netball team who played their first match of the season at Latymer Secondary School. Our first match was cancelled, but our second, against Houndsfield, we won 5-0! It was a great team effort from everyone.

A fantastic celebration made by our year 3 class this year celebrating the Harvest. Well done to year 3 and a big thank you to the parents for bringing the Harvest to St Edmund's this year. Thank you.

Saying a big goodbye to year 6 well done! Wishing you all the best on your new journey.

Receiving the Eucharist for the first time is a special moment in a child's faith journey. Several children in Years 3, 4 and 5 have recently made their First Holy Communion. Last week, we celebrated this moment with a special mass in our church. Children and their families were invited to this lovely event and joined by their school friends. After the mass, the children were joined by family and friends for some nibbles and even more photographs.

In a heart-warming display of empathy and kindness, our Year 5 students have handcrafted fidget mittens for the residents of Eastbrook Care Home. These have coincided with the children learning about dementia and how to support individuals living with the illness, as their Design and Technology projects aimed to bring comfort and joy to those in need. 

Under the guidance of Mrs Pope, the mittens were adorned with colourful buttons, soft fabrics and tactile elements, allowing for residents to keep their hands occupied and engaged. 

A fantastic project which shows the wonderful impact our children can make on our wider community. 

Great work everyone!

Today children at St Edmund’s came to school dressed in red, white and blue clothes as they took part in different exciting events to celebrate the King’s Coronation. On this historic weekend, when our country welcomed a new ruler, it was a day full of joy and festivities. 

As a school, we were thrilled to be part of this significant event, and our students were excited to learn about the significance of the Coronation. Children learnt about the coronation traditions and the history and importance of the crown jewels, the robes and the throne, which will all be integral parts of the ceremony.
In the afternoon, year groups came together for a Coronation party with a traditional snack, dancing and plenty of singing!

It provided a fantastic opportunity for our students to learn about the traditions and customs of our country and celebrate an important event in our history. We hope that this day will remain etched in our students’ memories and that they will continue to learn about our country’s rich history and traditions.

Thank you to Ms Sinclair for planning a wonderful day!
