Last weekend, Hollie in Year 6 took part in a charity walk for the Alzheimer's Society. Hollie and her mum have raised an incredible £700 so far, and all in St Edmund's are very proud of you both. The sore legs the next day were certainly worth it! You have set a fantastic examples to others around school, and it is great to see you demonstrating our school motto 'Love, Care, Share'.
If you see Hollie (or her mum) please make sure to say a huge well done!
We are delighted to welcome our new Reception children and their families to the St Edmund's community. We fully understand that starting Reception is a huge milestone for children and parents. We aim to make the transition as smooth as possible and help children embrace their new environment and feel happy and secure at school. This week the children started full time and enjoyed making new friends and getting to know the staff.
Here are a few photos of the children's first full days.
This term St Edmund's are privileged to be working with Tottenham Hotspur Foundation. Each week coaches arrive to run a reading programme with Year 4 and lead PE lessons with Year 2.
It is a fantastic opportunity for children to take part in activities which encourage wellbeing and gives them a chance to take ownership of their behaviour and attitude towards learning.
We would like to thank the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation for all their efforts and look forward to working with them in the future.
A warm welcome back from all the staff at St Edmunds! We hope you are relaxed, recharged and ready for the new school year ahead.
A special welcome must go to all our new staff and children who have joined across the school. We are very pleased you have joined our school community, and we look forward to working with you all over the next few years!
We are also excited to share that Zolie in Year 6 has recently been accepted to train and play for Arsenal Woman FC. She received her first Arsenal kit over the Summer holidays and was invited to play in her first tournament held in Swindon. Zolie has been working and training very hard over the last couple of years, and all from the St Edmund's community would like to congratulate her on her efforts. We are incredibly proud of you and are very much looking forward to hearing and watching your rise to the top!
Finally, thank you parents, for your patience and understanding with the new gate routines. As restrictions slowly start to ease, and we re-establish school routines, let's stay positive, keep smiling and make this the best school year yet!
