London Marathon 26th April 2026

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.

Social Media and Online Safety Workshop

Today, Year 5 welcomed Mr Taylor, who gave a talk about social media and mobile phone safety. He discussed the appropriate age limits for different apps and emphasised that online friends are strangers. The children enjoyed sharing their own experiences, including their social media habits and what their parents do and don’t know about how they use their devices. We also talked about how to report and block anything that makes us feel uncomfortable online.     We will share the presentation here when it is available.

New Build Update and Thank you to PTFA

Over the half-term break, our building contractors were on site completing all outstanding snagging items in the new building. This marks another important step in ensuring that the space is fully ready for the children to enjoy, and we are delighted with the progress that has been made. I would also like to express my sincere thanks to the PTFA, who have very generously donated £9,000 towards the installation of the red rubber crumb surface at the back of the new building. This new surface will significantly enhance the outdoor learning and play environment, providing a safer, more durable, and more accessible area for all pupils to use throughout the year. The PTFA’s continued support plays a vital role in enriching the school experience for our children. Their fundraising efforts made possible by the time, energy, and generosity of our parent community have a direct and meaningful impact on the facilities and opportunities we are able to offer. We are extremely grateful for their commitment and for the difference they make.

Safer Internet Day - 10th February 2026

Safer Internet Day 2026 - 10th February 2026 The children took part in a whole-school assembly focused on staying safe online. During the assembly, we talked about the importance of keeping personal information private and why details such as passwords, addresses and school information should never be shared online. We also explored the idea of a digital footprint, helping the children understand that what we post, share or comment on can stay online and become part of our online story. Following the assembly, the children continued the conversation in their classes, where they were able to ask questions and discuss different scenarios in more detail. We talked about how to recognise when something online doesn’t feel right and what to do if they ever feel worried or uncomfortable. The clear message was: stop, don’t respond, and tell a trusted adult straight away. We encourage you to continue these conversations at home, as regular reminders help children feel confident, informed and safe when using the internet.   Please click onto the link below for the presentation.

EYFS Dentist Visit - 4th February 2026

On Wednesday 4th February, we had a special visit from the dentist, Nick, in EYFS. The dentist checked the children’s teeth and talked to them about the importance of looking after their smiles. The children learned that they should brush their teeth twice a day for two minutes and visit the dentist two times a year. Everyone listened really well and enjoyed learning how to keep their teeth healthy and clean. Thank you, dentist Nick!
