Dear St George’s families,
As we reach the end of our first half term, it has been lovely to reflect on such a busy and successful start to the school year!
This week, we visited the church for our Harvest Festival, where the children sang beautifully and our Faith Group represented the school brilliantly. Thank you to everyone who contributed donations, which will be passed on to Lewisham Foodbank to support local families.
Across the school, children have also been enjoying DT Fortnight, exploring structures and food through some fantastic practical learning experiences. Do take a look at the news stories below to see what they have been getting up to!
A big thank you to all the parents who attended our Phonics Cafés this half term. We hope these sessions have helped you feel even more confident in supporting your child's learning at home. Reading regularly together makes such a difference, so please keep this up over the break!
Finally, we say a very fond farewell to Barbara, who is retiring after 12 wonderful years at St George's. She has been such an important part of our school community and will be greatly missed. We wish her every happiness as she begins this exciting new chapter.
Wishing all our families a wonderful half term break. We look forward to welcoming everyone back refreshed and ready for another exciting half term!
Mr Janes
