Thank you to Year 5 who led our first Mass in Lent. The children reflected on the theme of prayer as the Gospel shared was all about how Jesus taught his disciples to pray. After Mass we reflected on the 2nd Station of the Cross as we continue our journey with Jesus.

Year 5’s Mass
Tuesday, 28 February 2023Water Safety
Monday, 27 February 2023
We are so pleased to have our own swimming pool on the playground this half term! It’s really important that children understand how to keep themselves safe around water so the first lesson is all about water safety! Children worked with Mrs Allum, Mrs Moran and Mr Daniels to learn all about how to be safe by bodies of water in the environment and how to enter our pool safely too!
Stations of the Cross
Monday, 27 February 2023
Today we started our Lenten journey together in school. We paused at the first station and thought about how Jesus must have felt when he was condemned to death. We placed two purple footprints on the wall to mark the start of our journey with Jesus.

Goodbye ‘Allelluia’
Friday, 17 February 2023
As today was our last whole school gathering before the season of Lent begins. The children shared what they remembered about this special season and that we don’t say ‘alleluia’ again until Easter. We placed the ’alleluia’ safely in a box ready to be opened after Easter!
