Good luck to all those who are running in the London Marathon on Sunday 26th April and especially:
Anne Lomas, mum to Wilhelmina and Thea Guidi
She will be running the London Marathon for Evelina Children's Hospital (they saved Thea's life when she was 5 months old). She has made her fundraising goal - but would love friendly faces along the route. The girls are super excited to share the news with their friends at Our Lady of Grace. They have been helping with spectator planning, recovery, morale boosting and even training with Anne.
Alfie Penfold, son of Nicola Penfold (TA at Our Lady of Grace)
Alfie will be running in support of the Bromley Children and Families Voluntary Sector Forum (BCFF), an organisation that does amazing work helping children, young people and families across the community.
Alfie's younger brother has autism and growing up alongside him has taught him just how vital understanding, support and inclusion are, not only for individuals with additional needs but for their families too.
Running 26.2 miles will be tough for Alfie but it's nothing compared to the challenges many families face every single day.
Ted Hutchins', (pupil) Auntie Julie
Ted and his family will be cheering on his Auntie Julie as she runs the 26.2 mile course across London.
Huge congratulations to everyone taking part in the London Marathon on Sunday 26th April. Whether you’re chasing a personal best, running for a cause close to your heart, or simply taking on the challenge, your dedication and spirit are incredible. London will be cheering you on every step of the way.

Our Mini Vinnies group, led by Mrs Perera and Miss Erokwu, recently visited Westcombe Park Care Home as part of their mission to serve others in our community.
Eight of our pupils proudly represented the school, demonstrating Catholic Social Teaching through their actions of kindness, respect, and compassion. During their visit, the children thoughtfully prepared and delivered hampers for the hardworking staff and created beautiful Easter cards for both residents and carers. They spent meaningful time talking with the residents, listening to their life stories, learning about the jobs they once had, the places they have travelled, and even discussing the football teams they support.
These conversations were a valuable opportunity for the children to appreciate the dignity and worth of every individual, especially those who may feel vulnerable or isolated. It was a truly enriching experience for all involved, and our pupils showed great maturity, empathy, and a genuine commitment to caring for others. We look forward to our next visit.

We were honoured to welcome Canon Victor (Episcopal Victor for Education) to officially open our new building. His presence made the occasion feel truly significant, marking an exciting new chapter for our school community. The opening ceremony was a moment of pride for everyone involved. a chance to celebrate the hard work, planning, and dedication that brought this project to life. Canon Victor's warm words and encouragement added a special touch to the day, reminding us of the importance of community, collaboration and shared purpose.
During his visit, we had the pleasure of showing him and Colette Doran Hannon, (Diocesan Schools Commissioner) around the school and sharing the vision behind our new spaces. They took a genuine interest in the learning environment, the children, and the opportunities this building will create for years to come. It was wonderful to see their enthusiasm and learnt more about the work taking place across the school.
We look forward to all the learning, creativity and growth that will take place within these new walls and we are grateful to Canon Victor for helping us mark the beginning of this exciting journey.
