• Spreading Christmas Cheer 🎄

  Fri 19 Dec 2025

  Yesterday, our school choir had the pleasure of visiting the residents at Leonard Lodge, where they shared festive songs and helped spread some Christmas cheer. The children sang beautifully and brought lots of smiles to the residents, making it a truly special and memorable visit for everyone involved.

  We are very proud of our choir for representing the school so wonderfully in the community.

• What a day!

  Fri 24 Oct 2025

  Our school crossing patrol lady, Pauline retired today after 39 years! We invited her into assembly to say a huge thank you for all the years of smiles and service. During assembly, Mrs Sraan and some of the children taught us about the festivals of Diwali and Bandi Chorr Diwas.

   

  In the afternoon, we were privileged to receive a visit from Alex Burghart, MP, who answered some very insightful and thought-provoking questions from Years 5 and 6. They learnt about how laws are made, how to become an MP, and so much more. Mr Burghart also invited them to visit him at the Houses of Parliament.

   

  The day ended with all of the KS2 children being treated to French lessons led by some Year 11 students from Brentwood Ursuline. Ils étaient très intéressants et les enfants les ont beaucoup aimés!

• Year 2 trip to Brentwood Cathedral

  Thu 19 Jun 2025

  As part of our celebrations for the Jubilee Year of Hope, Class 2 met up with Year 2 children from St Helen's Infant School and visited the Cathedral in Brentwood. Fr John Harvey met the children at the Holy Door and gave them a very interesting talk about the history of the building. They then went for a picnic at St Helen's. The most exciting part, however, was the bus journey there and back!
