Good luck to our long serving staff. Happy Retirement!

The end of term saw many celebrations of 'farewell'  in the classrooms and around the school for our long serving staff retiring this year. We wish the best of luck to our beloved teachers!

We wish the best of luck to all our beloved long serving teachers who retired at the end of this year and have dedicated so many wonderful years with St Catherine's:

  • Mrs Yvonne Mengos (Head of EYFS) after 28 Years of service;
  • Mrs Julie Grantham (Lower School) retiring after 33 Years of service;
  • Mr Steve Bradley (Lower School), 17 Years and
  • Mrs Judith Bradley (Lower School) after 20 Years of service

Good luck, we will miss you!

The end of term saw many celebrations of 'farewell'  in the classrooms for our long serving staff retiring this year.

Reception pupils and their parents, together with the PTSA organised an olive tree to be planted in the Reception grounds to honour and wish a farewell to Mrs Yvonne Mengos, Head of EYFS.

A lovely farewell was organised for Mrs Julie Grantham by her students in the Lower School

also, an emotional farewell was shared with Mrs Bradley by her students in 4B

Staff celebrated with wonderful memories and stories in the roof garden of the Upper School

A sad day for St Catherine's, but we wish our colleagues, friends and special teachers all our best wishes from the whole St Catherine's community and thank you for making such a difference in so many children's lives.

Good Luck!
