Friday 11th July 2025

Dear Parents and Carers,

As we approach the final week of term, the energy around Kilmorie is buzzing!

Rehearsals for Peter Pan have stepped up a gear, and we’re all eagerly anticipating next week’s performances our young stars are ready to shine!  

 

 

On Tuesday we received our SATs results, and I am happy to report that the results have improved from last year, particularly in Maths and those working at Greater Depth. On Wednesday, we welcomed families for Parent's Evening, and we hope you enjoyed the opportunity to look through your child’s books and celebrate their progress. This week, in assembly, Kate introduced the next focus in our Rights Respecting School Charter: Article 31 – every child has the right to relax, play, and take part in cultural activities. A timely reminder as we head into the holidays.  

Rhiannon’s class gave us a class assembly on Amy Johnson.  It was a wonderful performance with the Year 1 children showing us their learning.  It certainly got me thinking about how much travel has changed since the Wright brothers! 

It’s hard to believe the end of the year is already here—where has the time gone? Next week will be filled with joy and a touch of sadness as we celebrate our achievements and say heartfelt goodbyes to our wonderful Year 6 pupils and some fantastic colleagues. 

Remember tomorrow is our Summer Fair running from 12pm to 3pm.  The weather will be amazing, I hope to see your there!  Have a good weekend. 

 

Pupil Parliament Badges (Pack Of 5) - School Merit Stickers

Last Friday, Elis and representatives of our Pupil Parliament visited London to help support a Citizen’s UK project. 

The project's aim is to use the power of our young people and hold decision-makers to account on our priorities. This is a chance to get commitments on the temporary accommodation and care campaign from Janet Daby, Children’s Minister, and explore emerging issues:  

We took part in activities to show politicians that, although we may not have the power to make changes ourselves, we can work together to make our voices heard by those who do. 

As part of this, we wrote letters sharing our views and delivered them to the Minister at the Department for Education (DfE). We’re proud to say the letters were accepted, and we’re now hoping for a response and real solutions or changes to follow. 

 

Backstage Helpers (Young Carers) 

Last week the Backstage Helpers had a special trip to  Mayow Park.  We saw new friendships continue to blossom, older children playing with and supporting the  younger children. A special moment was hearing the children talk about their siblings and their different needs. They shared information about their siblings’ wheelchairs, how they feed, changes to medication, disturbed nights and even their future. But what stood out most was the love and care for their siblings and other family members.  

On Wednesday, Crystal and Vicky’s classes wowed us with their amazing dance performance inspired by Ancient Egypt and the Water Cycle!

Crystal’s class opened the show with The Life of Ancient Egyptians, using physical theatre to bring scenes of Pharaohs, Cleopatra, pyramid building, and Egyptian gods to life. Year 4 followed with a beautiful performance as the River Nile, using flowing, water-like movements in unison, with elements of canon, levels, and floor work. Year 3 then joined in to show different jobs and daily life along the river. 

A huge thank you to our wonderful dance teacher Justyna and all Kilmorie staff for their support in bringing this performance together!
