Learning, growing and celebrating together...

Dear Sacred Heart Kew Families,

 

Welcome back to Term Four. I hope that everyone had a fabulous school holiday break. It has been lovely catching up and hearing of everyone’s adventures as we settle back into life here at school. And isn’t life here at Sacred Heart Kew this term just a little bit different…

 

Why is that? 

 

During the school holidays we were able to start moving items back to the School Hall and classrooms, working around the builders, as they continue to finish a few things off. Our children and teachers have enjoyed being back in these newly refurbished spaces, and throughout the next few weeks, we hope that all our building refurbishment works are completed, which includes the external painting of the building and installation of the lift (and the arrival of our remaining new student desks next week). Later this term (after our School Musical), we will organise and reset things in this building, hopefully, getting everything back to normal by the end of the school term, so everyone can enjoy our usual end of year events and celebrations in this beautiful and updated space. Feel free to go for a wander through this newly improved space. Just be careful you don't trip over any of the musical props or costumes, or roll in any glitter! 

 

 

The different start to the term doesn’t end with the School Hall. Can you believe it, there are only 4 sleeps (if you can manage it) to go until the first night of our School Musical - Disney Frozen Junior! The stage is set for a truly MAGICAL spectacular over 2 nights next week. We cannot wait for our children to dazzle and inspire you on both Tuesday and Wednesday night. It is a show not to be missed. 

 

Tickets can still be purchased (see link below)

Some helpful hints in the days to come (and on the night)

 

  • Please make sure that you check your tickets so that you attend on the correct night
  • Please take a screenshot of your tickets to show at the door
  • Each night the performance begins at 7pm
