Macmillan Coffee Morning

Parents, carers and relatives are invited to join us for our Macmillan coffee morning which will take place on Friday 27th September in the school dining hall at 9am.

We would appreciate our families’ support with fundraising by requesting cake donations for this event. Please ensure all donations are nut free. Donations may be dropped off at the school office on Thursday 26th September.

We look forward to seeing you!

Dedicated Class Artists

In previous years the children of Saint Jérôme School have had a world-renowned, French or British, artist linked to their class to promote the joy of art and develop a curiosity about culture. After feedback from children and parents, including your parent governor representatives, we are delighted to bring back this tradition and look forward to seeing these artists come to life in the classrooms from September and through the projects the children create over the summer.

Below is the list of artists linked to each class, and the room numbers at the National Gallery where you can find paintings by each of these artists. The National Gallery is completely free to enter.

The Summer Reading Challenge

The Summer Reading Challenge is returning again this year to all libraries in Harrow.  We hope that this year even more children will take part in this national reading-for-pleasure event.

The challenge is free of charge and also available online, making it possible for every child to take part and to improve their reading skills while having fun over the summer; ending on Saturday 7th September.

The theme this year is Creativity, and the library service will be working with Aardman Animations, offering special model-making workshops over the launch weekend 6th-7th July, themed activities in branches and an exclusive library membership card featuring the much-loved character, Gromit.

Back by popular demand this year, at the end of the challenge, those children who complete six books will be entered into a prize draw for a chance to win a family ticket to Wembley Stadium.
