Testimonials

It has been a fun journey because it has taught me how to organise my time better, and go to meetings on time, as well as being responsible. I hope in the future we can do more activities and make the school a place for people who are from different places to feel like they are home. I also hope future house captains can be as responsible as us this year.

Being a House Captain has given me many great opportunities and helped me grow throughout Year 6. If you want to know what it’s like, you should know that it is a lot of fun! However, responsibility comes along with it as well. I learned how to manage myself, work with deadlines and manage time as well. Being a House Captain is amazing and a rewarding experience. I feel very grateful to be able to give back to this school that has helped me grow over the last 5 years.

We particularly enjoy sports day where the spirit of the community joins together.

When everyone is cheering for their houses and friends, the atmosphere and applause from the stadium were simply electrifying!

My son enjoys his enrichment reading club, where he is given the opportunity to collaborate in a team and has different roles each week; his favourite so far is being an illustrator.

Look at our amazing hoops showing the children's rights. Each class was responsible for researching and displaying a child's right. They have then been teaching that right in assembly each week. Their understanding and creativity is phenomenal. Well done SJS!
