St Paul's CofE Primary School, Kingston Hill

Our vision is to educate for life, with the love of God, and Christian Values, at the heart of our school.

The school is now closed (there is provision for vulnerable children and the children of key workers).

Please ensure that you do not send your child into school if they or a member of your household are showing any symptoms of COVID-19: a new, continuous cough or a high temperature or a loss of the sense of taste and/or smell, 'or any other recognised symptoms' - as new ones have been added, especially for children (e.g. a rash, 'covid toes' etc.)

The pack is to support you to support your children.
