I always enjoy visiting schools so it was a real pleasure to spend time with the pupils at @StJamesHatcham last week. I was treated to some brilliant singing, dancing & debating, plus important updates on their school projects. Thank you Ms McFarlane & team for welcoming me!

We are always delighted to see our former students when the come to visit.

We are so happy to welcome our lovely new Nursery and Reception children. They have settled very well and look so smart in their uniforms. We still have a limited number of Nursery places available so please contact the school for information. #startingschool

Everybody had a wonderful time at Sports Day! Well done to you all!

Lovely to see our Y6s storytelling for our younger children and their parents in Chatterbox.

We hope to see many of you at Sports Day next week!

A special day planned tomorrow by the student Headteacher and Deputy!

Windrush Day was such a highlight this week, when we celebrated the Windrush generation and opened our new history museum. The children looked gorgeous in their clothes and enjoyed many activities including making plantain and cornmeal porridge!

Are you looking for a school or nursery place? If so we hope you will visit our school. Our wonderful students will show you around the school and staff will answer any questions you have. We are situated in a quiet street in New Cross and are proud to be part of @sdbemat

Upcoming programme of events at Chatterbox. We hope to see you there for #storytelling (and coffee and cake!)
