Thank you to everyone who attended our art exhibition yesterday – it was wonderful to see so many families celebrating the children's fantastic creations.
If you would still like to purchase your child's framed artwork, you can do so until Tuesday 12th May. @AquilaTrustUK

What a busy week! Dance workshops, an author visit, football matches, a brilliant Family Worship and lots of fantastic learning! Our allotment and Forest School are full of life too! @AquilaTrustUK #forestschool #outdoorlearning #growyourown

Year 6 have been enjoying their survival unit in Forest School this term. Today they experimented with how to make clean water through filtering...we are not sure it is quite ready to drink yet! @AquilaTrustUK #forestschool #outdoorlearning #scienceinaction #survivalskills

What a fabulous festive day! From a surprise staff panto, to Christmas dinner, market and café and finishing off with Carols Around the Tree. Thank you to all our parents and carers who joined us today. We hope you are feeling ready for Christmas now!

[Kennington CE Academy @KenningtonCe]

Two wonderful examples of creativity from our children today. A stunning drawing of The Highwayman from Sophia in Year 6 and a beautiful Christmas tree created by Marcia in Year 5! You would not believe it was made from toilet roll tubes! Well done to them both!

Observing Mitzvah Day also helps us to know about social action in other religions. We sent letters of gratitude to the emergency services and other agencies who help us and we hope our parents enjoyed their paintings and thank-you messages too! #socialaction @CanterburyDio

[Kennington CE Academy @KenningtonCe]

Mitzvah Day was a huge success last week. We swept up leaves, picked litter in the local area, wrote thank-you letters, and tidied our school grounds. This active approach to community teaches us the importance of environmental stewardship and civic engagement. @AquilaTrustUK

Thank-you for the extremely generous Harvest donations last week. The Foodbank told us you have provided enough to feed 183 families. We will be handing the toiletries to Porchlight when they join us for worship after half-term. Thank you.

Our children raised a phenomenal £760.53 at the recent Charity Fair! An amazing amount of money from stalls and games the children created entirely themselves. The money will be sent to charities nominated by our School Council. @aquilatust #socialaction @BritishRedCross @CR_UK

What a performance! Well done to our amazing Year 6 who staged two performances of their brilliant end of year production yesterday. They also held their Leavers' Service full of memories and inspiring words. What a busy and wonderful day! @AquilaTrustUK #Year6 #schooldays
