The Sports Day and interhouse winners are Herons!! Well done to all the houses but a well-deserved win for the yellows! All the children were utterly brilliant!

Whitstable Carnival 2025 preparations are underway with our Year 4 children again this year. The theme of the Carnival is 'Peter Cushing' and we will be embracing Frankenstein and the Daleks as our inspiration this year. We are very thankful to members of the Whitstable Carnival Committee who have come into school to support Year 4 with their creations. Year 4 families please save the date - Saturday 2nd August, early evening - to come and join in as Year 4 Swalecliffe children participate in the carnival procession, which was a great success last year! Further details to follow. (Although the group says 2024, it is very much for this year!) (
