Year 7 & 8 Family Games Night POSTPONED

Picture
Following the emergence of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 in the UK the school have taken the decision to sadly postpone this event.

However.... we hope the event will return in the Spring/Summer term as part of our 50th Anniversary events and if the weather is nice it may even be outside!  

Thank you so much to the 115 people who RSVP'd.  We were wonderfully surprised to see how many of you were keen to come along!  Also many thanks to the 3 families who had already made a ticket donation to help towards the cost of the event - we will be in contact soon to arrange a refund or to arrange for it to carry forward to the rescheduled event. 

Jays Youth Club

Picture
Remind your children about JAYS Youth Club based at St James' Church.  As far as we are aware Joe, Georgina and Naomi are still looking forward to welcoming the kids every Tuesdays afterschool during term time between 15:30 - 17:00.   ​

  • Online fundraising - Easyfundraising and Amazon smile
  • BAME - Black, Asian Minority Ethnic group - to work in partnership with Teacher Charmaine Jean-Paul and student Council
  • Environment/Sustainability - Good headway was made last yr, but we need to regather and plan going forward.
  • Community garden/outdoor learning - To assist school with the continued project.
  • 2nd hand school Uniform - to assist and continue the scheme

We also always need people to just help out as and when needed for anything from helping serve drinks at an event to helping apply for grants.
