This half-term has seen a continuation of the great start to the year we had last half-term. I hope you had a chance to read the newsletter and perhaps spotted the school in the press (TV and papers) as a result of our continued outstanding academic achievement.

We will be celebrating the Feast of St Edmund’s on Friday 16^th November 2018 and in the same format as last year we will be combining our celebrations with PSHE day. 

On the 16^th November, Years 7, 8 and 10 will attend a special Mass at St John’s Cathedral in the morning following registration and will return to school in time for break.  For the duration of the day students will be with their tutor group undertaking a variety of PSHE activities.    They will leave from the school at the normal time (Years 7, 8 and 10).

Years 9 and 11 will remain in school for the morning with their year groups then they will have their own special Mass at St John’s Cathedral starting at 2pm. Students (Years 9 and 11) may then either be collected from the Cathedral at 3pm or make their own way home as normal. 

You are welcome to join us for either of the Mass services which will start at 9.15am and again at 2pm. This will be a delightful spiritual celebration of the ethos of St Edmund’s Catholic School.
