Welcome from the Head Teacher
As a practising Roman Catholic, I am extremely proud to be the HeadTeacher at St Ethelbert's Catholic Primary School and Nursery. Since starting in September 2020, I lead an experienced, hardworking, outward looking and committed team who look forward to developing the school further for the children and local community. I have worked in Thanet throughout my whole career so know the area very well.

Nursery Class has a very special visitor today - a Giant Tortoise called Bowser! The children were very excited and were very good at looking after him whilst he munched on the grass in the garden. A big thank you to Malachai in the Nursery and his family who let the Nursery borrow him for the day! https://www.stethelbertsschool.co.uk/

We are thrilled to share that Tesco is kindly supporting healthy eating in our school by providing free fresh fruit and vegetables for our children! Since Early Years and KS1 already receive daily snacks, we are offering this wonderful donation to our KS2 pupils to enjoy during morning break times. Thank you Tesco!
