Our provision and our focus on personal development and welfare is outstanding. Supportive and skilled staff nurture and develop children to find what they are excellent at - whether it’s in the classroom, on the sports field, or as an artist.

Jackey Bakers Recreation Ground in Ramsgate is an important green space, well used by local people for organised sports, outdoor fitness, dog-walking and play. Working in partnership with the Football Foundation, Thanet District Council hopes to unlock up to £6 million in grant funding to improve the facilities there. Local people now have the opportunity to share their ideas on what improvements we should consider, via an online survey and community engagement events. Complete the survey here: https://yourvoice.thanet.gov.uk/en-GB/projects/jackey-bakers-hub We want to understand what facilities and features people value most. These could be play areas, sports facilities, nature spaces, and accessibility improvements. In addition to the general survey, there's also a special survey for younger people, we would be grateful if you could share before 1st March, so they have the opportunity to feed into the community engagement and future of the site: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdt2jdS5k8zxQGsKgafDwp5sIaQ8_0uw_0mhGVI_9j--jne2g/viewform Many thanks, Coast and Public Realm Team, Thanet District Council.

Last term Anning class and Picasso class had a great day working with ceramists Jayne and Leah from the Turner Gallery. The children made their own totem poles as part of our two year art project with the gallery. Jayne was particularly thrilled to hear so many of our children talking about wanting to be artists when they grow up. We certainly have some skilled artists in our midst!

Year 6 had a fantastic time watching the Chatham and Clarendon Grammar School production of The Addams Family. The show was fantastic and we were so proud of our children, they were the perfect audience and really engaged with the story and appreciated the hard work of the performers. 🤩

Each term, we have a spotlight on careers. Derek visited Lower School to talk all things plumbing this week. The children found lots of things out, including how Derek was involved in the plumbing of a school in Belarus. We were particularly proud of the children's thoughtful questions.
