Year 2’s assembly

On Friday 17th January the children from Year 2 shared a special assembly all about the parable of The Good Samaritan.

The children acted out the story and reminded us of the compassion and love the Samaritan showed towards the Jewish man who had been injured and how this is an example for us to follow in our daily lives.

One Year 5 child said, “The assembly reminds me to love everyone like family and to be kind.”

Well done to everyone in Year 2, you did a brilliant assembly!

Year 6’s gathering

On Thursday 16th January the children from Year 6 hosted a special gathering for their prayer partners in Year 3.

Year 6 thought very carefully about the gathering to make it very reflective and a time of prayer and peace.  The children chose readings, created a lovely display and wrote beautiful prayers to share.

Thank you Year 6 for all of your thoughtfulness.

Our completed Nativity scene

On Monday 6th January during our first Gospel Assembly of the year we shared the Epiphany Gospel reading and then completed our Nativity scene by adding the three Wise Men to the stable.

A lovely way to start the new year in school – Happy New Year!

Our completed Jesse Tree

On Wednesday 18th December we shared the carols and the readings from our Carol Service in Church with the rest of the school.

It was a lovely end to the term in school and which also saw the completion of the Jesse Tree as the final symbol of Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus was added.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Our service in Church

On the evening of Tuesday 17th December lots of children and their families gathered at Our Blessed Lady and St Thomas of Canterbury Church to celebrate the Nativity.  Children from the school read and acted out the Nativity and everyone joined in with singing some beautiful songs and carols.

It was a lovely event and both Fr Louis and Sr Bridget enjoyed seeing the children acting, reading and sharing the true meaning of Christmas.

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us.
