On Friday 24 November St Edmund’s took part in the nationwide Unison Stars in Our Schools event to celebrate the wonderful work support staff do every day.

Members of the Senior Leadership Team and Governing Body served tea and cake to support staff to say thank you for all they do in helping St Edmund’s students reach their full potential.

Mrs Hughes, Principal, thanked each and every member for rising to the challenges they face every day and emphasised the vital role they play in education.

Mrs Gallagher, Chair of the Academy Committee, said, “I think the event was very well received and what beautiful cakes!  The timing of the support staff “Stars in Our School” was very timely as we’re going to need everyone’s support to ensure the success of Mission Week.  I’m sure it will be another great week for everyone”.

Special thanks to members of the Catering Team for helping to organise the event and a massive thank you to Sam Hamilton who made the beautiful cakes.
