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.

A huge thank you to all our wonderful school families for supporting our non-uniform day last Friday! Thanks to your incredible kindness and generosity, our children raised a fantastic £165.68 for CAFOD. Following this brilliant effort, we are delighted to share that a representative from CAFOD will be visiting our school on Monday 5th October to speak to the children and explain exactly how this money will help global communities overcome poverty.
