Dear St George’s families,
It has been another busy and joyful few weeks here at St George’s, with so much to celebrate across the school.
Thank you to everyone who supported our fundraising for Jamaica. This cause was chosen by our pupils, and they were incredibly proud to see our whole community come together to make a difference.
Our Year 3 pupils had a brilliant experience at the Turning of the Year Concert at Blackheath Concert Halls. They sang a range of festive pieces alongside other Lewisham schools and represented St George’s wonderfully. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to perform in front of a large audience and build confidence on a professional stage.
We have also seen a flurry of class trips taking place recently. These visits play such an important role in bringing learning to life, and our pupils have been buzzing with excitement. Do take a look at the news stories below to see where each class has been and how these experiences have enhanced their curriculum work.
A huge congratulations goes to our Year 5 and 6 basketball team, who won first place in the Lewisham School Games. They are the first St George’s team to win at Lewisham level, and we are incredibly proud of both their performance and the sporting spirit they displayed throughout the competition.
Looking ahead, we are excited for our School Art Fair. You’ll be able to admire the children’s fabulous artwork and even purchase a final piece for a £1 contribution. Mince pies will be on sale, and our choir will be singing carols as you browse the displays — a lovely way to begin the festive season.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,
Mr Janes
Head teacher
St. George's CE Primary
