Today is Education Sunday in the Church - please pray for all of our Catholic Schools, especially the students, teachers, support staff, management and governors. In the Dover Deanery (our Deanery), we have five Catholic Primary Schools and one Catholic Secondary School. Please support you local Catholic School, wherever that may be.

The first proof check is happening as we speak (type) on the Official CD from St Edmund's Day. The band and choir sound amazing! Many of them are singing tonight at our Christmas Concert in the school's theatre from 7.30pm. Tickets still available on the door!

Hope you've all picked up your local Dover papers! Huge two page spread in the Mercury regarding St Edmund's Day and a good article in the Express too from our Feast Day Mass. Memories of the day came flooding back when taking a look at the pictures!

St. Edmund's is situated in Dover, 'Gateway to Europe' and one of the busiest ports in the world. The school nestles in a quiet lane overlooked by the historic castle and within a mile of the coast and the famous white cliffs.

Sorry for the lack of status' lately but we've been very busy bees! Yesterday we brought our Golden Jubilee year to a close in great still with Holy Mass for the Feast Day of our Patron, St Edmund of Abingdon. Archbishop Peter Smith, our Archbishop of Southwark, celebrated the very special Mass with clergy from across the Dover Deanery and beyond. It truly was a special day and reports will come out eventually giving more details and photos. Many ex students and staff joined the whole school in Canterbury Cathedral. We are very grateful to them all. For now, we will leave you with a couple of pictures until the official photos and video are available. Happy belated St Edmund's Day everyone!
