School Of Sanctuary

St Kentigern’s is a School of Sanctuary, meaning we are committed to providing a safe and inclusive environment for all who are seeking refuge. A School of Sanctuary aims to ensure pupils, staff and the wider community are welcomed and treated as an equal, valued member of the school community. It is a school which is inclusive to all.

We are proud to be working towards recognition of the School of Sanctuary status and ensuring our pupils learn what it means to be seeking a place of sanctuary. Our broad curriculum provides scope for children to explore these themes throughout topical learning.

Refugee Week

We have had a wonderful week of learning, beginning with a whole school worship; where we used the story of Paddington to explain what it means to be a refugee. In classes the children have then delved into refugee week further and have produced artwork, poetry and letters. Please see below:
