With Deepest Sympathy…

On behalf of all of the children, staff, governors, families and wider school community, we would like to take this opportunity to express how deeply saddened and moved we all are after hearing the news of the passing of our wonderful Queen- Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

The Queen was a lady that we all admired and respected for her loyal and committed service, she shone like a beacon to others and led the way as a role model to all. She was committed, compassionate and extended a warmth to others during her service as our Queen.

Whilst steadfast in her role and duties as a stateswoman, showing dignity and consistency, Queen Elizabeth was a kind-hearted and loving wife, mother and grandmother who has left a lasting impression upon her country, commonwealth and us all.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will be admired and respected for generations to come for the true and inspiring lady that she was. Through our school values of love, learn, grow and inspire we aspire to let our light shine, just as our Queen has done during her 70 years of dedicated service, and will remember her with fondness, admiration and pride.

Please see below, information for support available to families with a child or young person with emotional or mental health difficulties.

A BIG well done to all of the winners of the Easter raffle- enjoy your prizes!

Children were very respectful and prayerful as we joined in unity with our federated school Our Lady of Lourdes, Shotton, in our day for peace. Watch this space for some beautiful work produced today.
