Following the sad passing of our colleague, Kate Hesketh, we will be opening a Book of Condolences at Pendle Vale for members of our school community to share their memories and messages for Kate and her family.

The book will be available in school from Monday 12th to Friday 23rd October, between 3pm and 4pm each day. Everyone in our community is welcome to come in, sign the book and leave a personal message or memory.

Once the book has closed, we will share it with Kate’s family as a collection of the memories and messages from those whose lives she touched.

For anyone who is unable to visit the school in person, you are welcome to email your memories for inclusion in the book at 📧 [email protected]. Please use “For Mrs Hesketh” as the subject line of your email.

We hope this will provide an opportunity for our community to come together, remember Kate and share messages of comfort and support with her family during this difficult time.
