@OPAL_CIC in action outside today. From space hopper fun, building a city, water wall action or bumping into a wizard with his friend dressed as a clothes rail! Anything is possible when we're having fun playing together at St Eds. https://t.co/CnhP9OKfxM

We had great fun outside in the sunshine today. These girls used some of the road signs to make their own cosy home in a bit of a sun trap and invited us to come and visit for tea and cake! @OPAL_CIC https://t.co/35NFyppw4c

So glad we moved our child the best thing we could have done, lovely service today both Heads speak from the heart.
Parent
I just wanted to say thank you for all you have done for our child, we were so worried about the transition because of his additional needs but everything has run so smoothly and he is very happy.
Parent
I am so impressed with the way the children are conducting themselves, they are so focussed and want to achieve. Their class teacher has given them so much self-belief.
Parent
We ask you to extend our thanks and congratulations to everyone from the school who was involved in the carol service at the Sudbury library. We have known about music at the school right the way through our almost 40 years in Sudbury, so in that sense Saturday’s event was no surprise. In this day and age, however, it is simply glorious to see children performing with their school like this.
Parent
A big thank you for making St Edmund's school such a wonderful school for our children to go to.
