Thank you to the children and staff who are supporting our first charity event of the year: 'Jeans for Genes'. It's surprising how different our school uniform looks with a bit of denim!

Year 6 boys football team were victorious this evening. They played in a mini tournament at Banstead Junior School. They played three matches, winning two by 3 - 0 and 6 - 0. In the third match they were 1 - 0 down but equalised in the last 30 seconds. The team finished in first place. Very well played by all of the team.

During the summer holiday, former pupil Holly Dunford represented GB in the world junior rowing championship. This is already a great achievement, but Holly went on to win her event (the women's double skulls), narrowly bearing the Germans in the final. Well done, Holly.

Congratulations to one of our governors, Sr Mary Kenefick, who has just been named as one of four Catholic Women of the Year. We are very proud of Sr Mary.

St Anne’s 2017 Junior Sports Morning The sports morning was a great success and the weather was just as we ordered. St Anne’s house being the overall victors but that should not detract from the efforts and achievements of all the participants. A BIG thank you to all the athletes, supporters and Mrs Byrne as well as the school staff, PTA and parents.

The reception children are coming to the end of a busy first year at school. We wish them well for the exciting challenges ahead in year 1.

Today we had a visit from the head teacher of Koning School in South Africa, Vincent Molema. He talked to the children about how our yearly fundraising has helped his school over the years. He is very grateful to us and expressed his appreciation.

Sayers Croft update Oh, how time flies when one is having fun! Yes, it’s the last day and the children are so disappointed that they will be heading home after lunch today, they would have loved to remain a few more days. Last night they had already started taking about and asking question regarding the year 6 JCA residential for 2018. I think the photos speak for themselves.

Our athletics squad have been in action this afternoon in the rearranged District Sports. Unfortunately only three schools were able to compete and we finished third, mainly because our Year 5 children were all unavailable due to the Sayers Croft trip. Nevertheless everyine tried hard and there were some impressive individual performances.

Good morning from Sayers Croft Everybody slept well and are now all watered, fed and dipped in sun block!

Year 3 have had a very busy week this week. We finished it off with a Friday night BBQ. We played rounders, danced and ate lots of delicious food. The children behaved beautifully and thank you to all the staff who gave up their Friday evening to look after the Year 3 children. Have a lovely weekend everyone 😊

Congratulations to past pupil Kieran Treadwell who made his international debut for Ireland on their recent rugby tour of Japan.
