At the end of August, we will be saying goodbye to our Site Assistant, Mr Guest, as he begins an exciting new role at another local school in Gosport. We are incredibly grateful for Mr Guest’s commitment, work and support during his time with us. From keeping our school safe, welcoming, and well-maintained to always lending a helping hand with a smile, he has been a valued member of Team Gomer. Staff and children alike will miss him, and we wish him every success and happiness in this exciting new chapter.

As many of our children are currently enjoying the summer holidays, we will be holding a special farewell for Mr Guest at the start of the new term so that everyone has the opportunity to thank him and wish him well.

With Mr Guest moving on to his new venture, we are now looking for someone special to join our team as our new Site Assistant.

As we reach the end of another busy and successful academic year, we would like to wish all of our KA Gomer families a very happy, safe and enjoyable summer break. It has been a wonderful year full of learning, achievements, challenges, celebrations and memorable moments. We are incredibly proud of all our children and grateful for the continued support from our families throughout the year.

There is lots happening locally over the summer holidays, much of it free, so please keep an eye on our Community Page for ideas, activities and opportunities to enjoy together.

We look forward to welcoming back all of our returning pupils, and meeting our new pupils, when we return for the new academic year on: Wednesday 2 September at 8.40am. Please ensure children arrive promptly and are wearing the correct school uniform, ready for another exciting year at KA Gomer.

Thank you for being such an important part of our school community. Have a fantastic summer. We can’t wait to see you all again soon!

Happy holidays from everyone at KA Gomer!

What an incredible way to end your time at KA Gomer! After working so hard and showing such resilience during your SATs, you certainly deserved the exciting weeks that followed. From the moment you returned, the celebrations began with an unforgettable residential at Tile Barn Outdoor Centre, where you challenged yourselves, supported one another and created memories that will last a lifetime.

Back at school, there was no time to slow down. Alongside transition activities and plenty of continued learning, you threw yourselves into rehearsals for your Leavers’ Assembly. It was a truly fabulous celebration of your time at KA Gomer, full of laughter, reflection and a few tears, leaving families and staff immensely proud.

The fun didn’t stop there! You also enjoyed GFest, our very own on-site festival, complete with exciting activities and a spectacular Colour Run. It was the perfect opportunity to celebrate together and enjoy one last adventure as a year group.

Your final day was a fitting end to seven wonderful years. There was time to sign shirts and memory books, sharing messages and laughs with friends before one final, unforgettable moment. As you left the school grounds, the entire school formed a Leavers’ Arch, cheering and applauding you on your way. It was a moving reminder that you will always be part of the KA Gomer family.

Year 6, you have left your mark on our school in so many ways. We are incredibly proud of each and every one of you and can’t wait to see what the future holds. Best of luck, Year 6. Dream big, work hard, be kind and never forget that you will always have a place at KA Gomer. We know you’ll go on to achieve amazing things.

As we reach the end of another school year, we also say goodbye to two very special members of the KA Gomer team – Miss Hall and Mrs Scott. Both have made an enormous contribution to our school and have been valued members of our staff team for many years. While we are sad to see them go, we are incredibly grateful for everything they have done for our children, families and colleagues.

Mrs Scott’s journey with KA Gomer began as a parent, with her own children attending our school. She later joined us as a Teaching Assistant, where her warmth, kindness and dedication have had a positive impact on so many children. She has always gone above and beyond to support our pupils.

Miss Hall first joined KA Gomer as our School Cook before moving into the role of Teaching Assistant. She has embraced every opportunity with enthusiasm and has led our Service Club brilliantly, inspiring children through her commitment, care and encouragement. Her energy and positivity will be greatly missed.

Both Miss Hall and Miss Scott are moving on to new roles at St Vincent College, and they will be fantastic additions to their team. St Vincent College is incredibly fortunate to be welcoming two caring and dedicated colleagues. Although we will miss them both , we know they will continue to make a real difference in the lives of the young people they work with. From everyone at KA Gomer, thank you for everything you have given to our school community. We wish you both every happiness and success in your new roles.

Good luck, Miss Hall and Mrs Scott.

There’s a common myth that schools begin to wind down as the end of the summer term approaches. At KA Gomer, the opposite couldn’t be more true! If anything, we speed up, making the very most of every opportunity to create memorable experiences for our children before the holidays begin. Our final week was packed with excitement, celebration and togetherness. We enjoyed wonderful concerts showcasing our pupils’ talents, an action-filled Let’s Do It Day, our emotional Year 6 Leavers’ Assembly, and, of course, the whole-school annual Water Play session – always a firm favourite and the perfect way to round off the year.

One of the highlights of the week was celebrating the achievements and character of our children through a number of special awards. The Jenny Godbold Award was presented to a Year 5 pupil who has navigated the year with resilience, determination and positivity, embodying the values that this award represents. Our Annual Kindness Award was proudly presented to Amelia in Year 6, recognising the compassion, thoughtfulness and care she shows to others every single day. The Music Award was awarded to Robin in recognition of his beautiful singing voice has brought joy to so many throughout the year.

We also celebrated the conclusion of this year’s House Points Cup competition. After a fantastic year of teamwork and effort, the trophy was shared jointly between the Yellow and Blue House – a fitting reflection of the commitment shown by all our pupils.

As another successful year comes to a close, we are incredibly proud of everything our children have achieved. Finishing the year with so many opportunities to celebrate, perform, play and recognise one another is exactly what makes KA Gomer such a special place to learn and grow.

What a way to round off another fantastic academic year! Our final Rocksteady Concert of the year was a celebration of the talent, confidence and hard work of our young musicians. The hall was filled with energy as our bands took to the stage, performing with enthusiasm, teamwork and real flair. It was wonderful to see every child shine, whether singing, drumming, playing guitar or keyboard. Their confidence and stage presence were a credit to the commitment they have shown throughout the year. We are incredibly proud of every performer for entertaining us so brilliantly and for having the courage to step into the spotlight. A huge thank you to our families for their fantastic support and to the Rocksteady team for inspiring our children week after week. What a brilliant, high-energy way to celebrate the end of another successful year at King’s Academy Gomer. Well done, everyone – you rocked!

Our annual Let’s Do It Day was an action-packed day. The day is all about helping everyone get ready for September. Children worked together to look through their learning, organise classrooms and prepare resources, taking real pride in looking after our school and creating welcoming environments for the new academic year. It is a wonderful way to build a sense of belonging and ownership while supporting a smooth transition into new classes. Of course, it wasn’t all hard work! Alongside the jobs, pupils enjoyed a fantastic range of indoor and outdoor enrichment activities, including arts and crafts, team games, puzzles and outdoor challenges. The highlight of the day? Without a doubt, the hall apparatus course! It was a huge hit, with laughter, determination and plenty of smiles as children climbed and balanced their way through the course. A brilliant day of teamwork, fun and community spirit. Let’s do it!

We are incredibly proud of our pupils, who have raised an outstanding (Gosport and Fareham Inshore Rescue Service). GAFIRS is a local independent lifeboat charity, run almost entirely by volunteers, providing a vital search and rescue service along the Gosport and Fareham coastline. Their crews are on call 24 hours a day to help people in difficulty on the water, making an invaluable contribution to keeping our local community safe. This fundraising total was made possible through the hard work and enthusiasm of our School Council, who organised a hugely successful cake sale and movie afternoon. Their planning, teamwork and commitment, together with the generosity of our families, resulted in a super outcome.

We are so proud of the children for showing such kindness, leadership and community spirit. The money raised will make a real difference and will be put to excellent use by GAFIRS as they continue their lifesaving work. We just hope we never need the help of the GAFIRS but want them to know they have our full support.

A huge thank you to everyone who baked, donated, attended and supported these events. Together, we have shown what can be achieved when our school community comes together for a great cause.

As we look back on some of our favourite learning experiences, we are reminded of this fantastic Year 3 trip to Staunton Country Farm. Although it was a little while ago, it remains a wonderful memory and an important part of the children’s learning journey. The children enjoyed meeting the farmyard animals and had the opportunity to feed the friendly goats, pigs and cows, including Eliza and Gemma. As part of their Science learning, they explored the tropical glasshouse, discovering a range of fascinating tropical plants while learning about the different layers of the rainforest, including the emergent layer, canopy, understory and forest floor. The day also called for plenty of courage, with the children bravely holding giant African land snails and even a giant cockroach! These memorable encounters provided great inspiration for their subsequent poetry writing about some of nature’s most misunderstood creatures. It was a brilliant day filled with hands-on learning, curiosity, confidence and plenty of smiles – one that Year 3 will remember for a long time.

We are delighted to announce that King’s Academy Gomer has been awarded the Intermediate International School Award by the British Council. This achievement recognises our international work happening across our school, helping our pupils grow into confident, compassionate global citizens. Three of our 2025-2026 international activities include:

🇪🇸 Spanish Partnership Throughout the year, our pupils worked closely with their peers at our partner school in Valencia, Spain. Using digital tools, they took part in live online meetings, carried out joint research and created shared presentations – developing brilliant 21st-century skills along the way. Pupils exchanged Christmas traditions and songs, boosting their language skills and cultural understanding, and reflected on the similarities and differences between their lives and those of their friends in Spain.

⛷️ Winter Olympics To mark the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan, pupils were introduced to the event through a whole-school assembly before enjoying our very own Mini Winter Olympics, organised by our International Ambassadors. It was a wonderful chance to celebrate global sporting culture while having fun together as a school community.

🌱 Global Stage Forum & SDG Project Our International Ambassadors attended the inaugural King’s Group Academies’ Global Forum, then shared their learning with the whole school in assembly. This inspired a school-wide project on food waste and sustainability, with pupils’ artwork proudly displayed on our International Dimension noticeboard for everyone to enjoy.

What the British Council Said

The assessor praised our application as “very good,” highlighting our robust motivation for international work, our dedicated International Dimension pages on the school website, and the excellent impact our activities have had on pupils, staff and the wider school community.

What’s Next?

With this foundation in place, we are already looking ahead to applying for Accreditation of the International School Award. A huge congratulations to our pupils, staff and International Ambassadors (pictured here) for making this achievement possible. And with thanks to Mrs MAwby who leads our International Ambassadors.
