End of Term Key Dates
It has been another enjoyable year for all at St Edmund’s with so much to celebrate and reflect upon.  The last few weeks ahead of us continue to be filled with events, learning and personal development.   As we start to look towards the end of the summer there are some key points to share/remind families of.

 Early Closure

 On Thursday 9th July 2026 the school will have an early finish at 12.25pm in order to facilitate staff training.

 End of Term Arrangements

 The last day of term is Friday 17th July 2026 and we will be celebrating the onset of the holiday with the ‘End of Year Thanks Giving Mass’ at St John’s Cathedral.   This will finish just after 11.30am.  Students may then either be collected from the Cathedral or make their own way home as normal.
