Community
At Valley Invicta Primary School at Holborough Lakes, we take pride in working with our local community. We hope the information below will tell you a little bit more about some of the projects we have been involved in.
Christ Church
We work closely with Christ Church in Snodland and Reverend Danielle Pearson-Smith. Rev. Pearson-Smith has presented assemblies and the children take part every year in a carol service, Easter service and harvest festival, linked to the church. The church manages our Harvest Festival donations which go to those in need in the local area.
All saints Church
The church holds a carol service every year and hosts a harvest festival. The school works closely with Reverand Danielle who is a regular visitor to the school!
Pilgrims View Care Home
In previous years our Year 3 and 4 pupils visited the care home to interact with residents and we are currently making plans for future visits.
Aldi
Our school is signed up to the Neighbourly Project, which donates supplies and fresh food, and allows us to then pass these on to the local community.
Headstart
We are a Headstart school, recieving an award from them for wellbeing and emotional resilience.
Snodland Town Council
We work collabortively with the local council to involve our school in local celebrations including the Christmas Parade and light up in the town hall. The children made beautiful lanterns that were lit up on the night of the pararde.
Fundraising
Our children have raised considerable amounts of money for both Mc Millan Cancer Fund, Place2Be, Help for Heroes, Children In Need and Great Ormond Street Hospital. The whole school takes pride in raising funds for local, national and international charities.
Remembrance Service
Every year, our children take part in a number of Remebrance day events, including assemblies, services and parades. We have had guest speakers like Mr Patrick Tootal who is a WW Veteran and we often are graced with the company of our local mayor.
Mayor's Debate
Our Year 6 children are regularly asked to take part in the mayoral debates at the official chambers in Kings Hill. This is a great experience for our older pupils to develop their verbal skills and see the Mayor's Chambers first-hand.
Mayor Visit
We often invite the Mayor to visit us and also our children take part in the mayoral debates at the official chambers in Kings Hill. This is a great experience for our older pupils to develop their spoken English.
