Latest Newsletter - Friday 11th July 2025
I can’t quite believe we’ve come to the end of our final full week of the academic year! Busy-busy still - Years 3, 4 & 5 and Cezanne class all visited Hyde Park for their British Summer Time Festival; Years 4, 5 & 6 took part in an ‘Intra-School’ Athletics Competition with the PE Network at Alexis St; another group of children attended the Oval for a terrific Cricket trip; Year 6 attended their Leavers’ Service at Southwark Cathedral and Year 5 attended a Drama Workshop at St. Saviour’s and St. Olave’s. Library visits have also continued and Rodney is attending both sites today to promote the annual ‘Summer Reading Challenge’ at the Blue Anchor Library which our children always participate in with great enthusiasm!
Our Collective Worship theme has continued to focus on ‘Moving On’ as we approach the end of the academic year. Don’t forget, our end of term Year 6 Leavers’ service in St. James’s Church next Thursday at 11:00 – all are very welcome to attend.
Our full newsletter and information letters are attached below.
Wishing you, our children, and our whole school community
a lovely final weekend of the academic year!
God bless, from the St. James’ team.
Do remember – we break up for the Summer Holidays next Thursday – 17th July at 13:15 (Alexis St) and 13:30 (Old Jamaica Road). There is no after school club provision at either site on this final day of term.
