Jodie Chesney

08 Mar Jodie Chesney

Last weekend we received the tragic news that Jodie Chesney, who left JRCS in 2017, had been murdered in an unprovoked knife attack on Friday evening. We will remember Jodie as a positive, popular and happy member of our school community, she always gave her best and developed strong relationships with both her peers and school staff. She was an active member of our Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme and went on to take her Silver award. She will be missed enormously and will forever remain a member of the JRCS community.

Our thoughts are with her family and friends at this time and today we took part in a wear purple for Jodie day in her memory and also to raise awareness about the terrible impact that knife crime can have in our community. Next week we will be placing a book of condolence in our school library so that all members of the JRCS community can record their memories and thoughts about Jodie.
