Dear St George’s families,
It has been a wonderful start to the new academic year, and we are now two and a half weeks in with plenty to celebrate already. A big thank you to all the parents who attended our Start of the Year meetings. These sessions were a great opportunity to share everything planned for your child’s class over the year ahead, and we really value your support.
Today, Head Boy and Head Girl applications were submitted to Ms McAlpine – a big well done to all pupils who put themselves forward. Shortlisting will take place next week, and we look forward to announcing the successful candidates soon.
Over the summer, we were proud to achieve the Platinum Award for School Games participation – a distinction earned by only a select few schools. This follows four consecutive Gold Awards and is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our pupils, as well as the fantastic leadership of Miss Michell in sport at St George’s.
Home learning has now begun, and we are grateful to all parents for supporting your children in establishing these routines. A special thank you to our Year 2 families, who are adapting to new expectations now that pupils are in the main building with our older children.
Finally, please make sure to check the key dates below, as we have some important events coming up, including our Reading Cafés, which will share valuable insights into how we teach reading at St George’s and how you can support at home.
Warm regards,
Mr Janes
Head teacher
St. George's CE Primary
