Latest Newsletter - Friday 12th December 2025
A busy, productive and joyful week as we prepare for our final week of the term. Children are rehearsing for next week’s nativities and carol events; Y1 had a very well-attended Christmas stall event; many visited our ‘Big Book’ event; library and swimming visits have now finished for the term. Our Collective Worship theme has continued to focus on Advent, looking at the birth of Jesus from the perspective of all involved.
There are plenty of reminders for the many events taking place during the final week of term as well as events and offers for families throughout the festive season. Please do view the full newsletter attached below together with the diary dates sheet, flu immunisation reminder and fliers for Reception's upcoming Christmas stall and Southwark's Winter of Food & Fun.
Wishing you and our whole community a lovely
final weekend of the Autumn term.
God bless, from the St. James’ team.
