Dear St George’s families,
Welcome back—I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable Easter break.
We’ve had a short pause in newsletters, which means there is plenty to catch up on in this edition. There are lots of fantastic news stories from across the school, so please do take the time to read through and celebrate all that has been happening.
Sporting events have been a real highlight recently, with pupils representing the school with great enthusiasm and teamwork. This week’s House Hockey Tournament was a brilliant example of this, with excellent participation and house spirit on display. We also have a number of Lewisham tournaments coming up—watch this space to see how our teams get on.
Looking ahead, we are very much looking forward to celebrating St George’s Day next week. As we do each year, pupils will be exploring why St George is such an important figure for our school. We are especially excited to see the children’s creative retellings of the famous myth—these are always a real highlight.
There is so much to look forward to this half term and across the summer term, with a wide range of events, experiences, and opportunities planned for our pupils.
We are also delighted to share the news that we have been awarded DfE funding to extend our Nursery provision to include two-year-olds. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the consultation—your responses clearly demonstrated the need for this provision in our local area. We anticipate this offer beginning in September 2026. A letter will be sent via SchoolPing soon for families who may be interested in this option for younger siblings.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,
Mr Janes
Head teacher
St. George's CE Primary
