We have also included a first draft of our 2026–27 school calendar. Please be aware that, while we have laid out the dates as carefully as possible, they are still subject to change. We hope, however, that this gives families a helpful idea of what is coming up and when across the next academic year.
As always, the newsletter also includes online safety information, this time focusing on managing digital boundaries for children under five, as well as our Jump Back Up July wellbeing section and reminders about upcoming school events.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support. It has been another very busy — and very warm! — fortnight in school, with so much fantastic learning, teamwork and creativity taking place across SSMJ.
Wishing everyone a lovely weekend, and we hope to see many of you at the Summer Fair later today.
With best wishes,
Bex Stott and the St Mary & St John Team
Headteacher
