AN ‘heart-warming’ event to welcome the new year seven class into the ‘Boteler family’ took place last week.

Students joining Sir Thomas Boteler along with their families were invited to St Elphin’s Church for the annual inauguration service last week.

The Student Leadership Body shared insights about school life and led prayers.

And the evening was enriched with performances from student musicians. This was followed by a rendition of Ave Maria by head teacher Beverley Scott-Herron.

“This was a wonderful event, and it was so amazing to have so many students and their parents/carers attend.

“The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and the Year 7 students are well and truly part of the Boteler Family.”
