Our pupils have been reflecting on the Queen's life following the announcement of her death.
Please click our social media sites to keep you updated.
Yesterday, the Palace announced the death of Queen Elizabeth. She has been described as “A stateswoman of unmatched dignity and constancy……… a steadying presence and a source of comfort and pride for generations of Britons…… a person whose steadfast loyalty, service and humility has helped us make sense of who we are through decades of extraordinary change in our world, nation and society.”
Today, every child at St. Kentigern’s joined in prayer for the repose of The Queen’s soul. We prayed that her family are given the strength to get through such a difficult and upsetting time. We prayed for her great grandchildren, who are similar in age to the children who attend St. Kentigern’s, that they remember the happy times they had together as a family.
Art Exhibition
The children exhibited their wonderful pieces of art yesterday. The standard
of work produced was phenomenal! Thank you for supporting your children by
attending the exhibition and purchasing their artwork. If you were unable to
attend on the day but would like to buy your child’s creation, please find
attached a letter with an order form which you can complete and return to
school.
