Au revoir from Mrs Wise

St Aelred's is a truly special place, and I should know—I have been part of this wonderful school since I first started here as a five-year-old, before returning twice to teach here.

It is filled with a dedicated and compassionate staff team who work tirelessly to ensure the very best for every child, academically, emotionally and spiritually. Our children bring with them incredible gifts, talents and personalities, and they continue to amaze us with the many ways in which they shine.

It is difficult to put into words what makes St Aelred's such a special place, but I believe it is, and always has been, because it is a family community with God the Father at its heart and Jesus the Son guiding every step of the way. It is a family that comes together in times of joy and in times of challenge, ensuring that everyone is seen, included, supported, celebrated and, when needed, lovingly remembered.

It has been an honour to be part of this wonderful family. I leave with a heart full of gratitude and with complete confidence that St Aelred's will continue to flourish under the care of the fabulous team I have had the pleasure and privilege of working alongside in recent years.

St Aelred's will always hold a very special place in my heart, which is why this is au revoir not goodbye!

🐭✨ We were delighted to receive Missio Mouse from Missio on Monday! ✝️

It was lovely to welcome Maria from Missio to our school to present us with the award. We are so proud to be only the third school in the country to receive Missio Mouse in recognition of the way our whole school community lives out our values of faith, kindness and solidarity 💛🙏

A big thank you to Maria and everyone at Missio for this very special recognition. We look forward to continuing to support the wonderful work of Missio in the years ahead.
