Our vision statement: Be brave. Be great. Be you. 

Our culture statement: We are fun. We are together. 



Dear St. George's families, 

It was a great end to the term at St George's today. The school was awash with blue and yellow in support of the First News Ukraine Appeal. There were also lots of announcements of winners of our Lent Fundraising competitions in Celebration Assembly. We certainly are courageous advocates here, making a difference. 

After the Easter break, we have some exciting learning to look forward to. St George's Day falls on a Saturday this year, but that will not stop us learning about St George in school and completing some collaborative artwork, organised by Ms Hall, our Art Lead. 

While we are all thinking about having a restful break, we want to take the chance to remind you of one of the greatest pastimes to do with your child: read. Please take up every chance to read to and with your child. It is the biggest single thing you can do to help open doors for children and is especially important over longer holidays like Easter. 

We wish you the very best of holidays, full of rest and fun, ready for learning after Easter. 

Mr Janes

Reminders

A Call to Action by School Council!

School Council have been listening to the views of pupils from across the school. One of the big items that pupils have wanted is a net to cover the football cage to stop balls from going over the fence. 

We have had a quote given to us for the net which comes in at £860. Not put off by the large number, School Council will be speaking to the school to find out ways we can fundraise to purchase the net. 

Remember, if you have any ideas,  School Council needs you!

Parent support

A reminder that you can access parental support on Monday, Wednesday or Friday from Carley between 9:00am and 9:30am. 

If you would like support for any issues or guidance to external agencies, Carley is here to help. 

She is also available on the gate at the end of the day every evening. 

At St. George's we say 'We are fun. We are together.' That includes our parents and wider community.
