This afternoon GMFRS came into school to explain the importance of fire safety, particularly around the events of Bonfire Night. They discussed with the children how to stay safe during this season and what dangers they might see.

The children were all fantastic and demonstrated a mature and respectful attitude towards the topic.

Well done Year 6!

This morning, we gathered together as a school to celebrate the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.

Year 6 spoke about the importance of the Rosary and how we can grow closer to Mary through praying the Rosary. The children also demonstrated how to pray using the Rosary beads, which we all did as a school.

All of the children were reverent and excellent ambassadors for Our Lady.

Well done Year 6!

In our final Literacy Kicks session, Year 5 & 6 explored the true story of the Jamaican bobsleigh team which inspired the famous 1993 film, "Cool Runnings". 

The children wrote about the incredible story and compared the real life version of events compared to the events shown within the film.

The children all demonstrated fantastic journalistic writing skills and shone with their enthusiasm.

Well done everyone!

This morning Year 6 had a special class mass with Father Jude.

We came together to celebrate the Gospel and how we have to show trust towards God, even when times are difficult. 
During mass with listened to the story of Abraham and Sarah and reflected on how they showed trust towards God, which also linked to our learning in our Creation and Covenant R.E unit.

All of the children demonstrated a reverent attitude towards their faith which was wonderful to see within our school chapel. 
Thank you to Father Jude and all of Year 6 for making such a brilliant start to our school year.

This morning Year 6 have visited the Reception children to welcome them into our school and also to make some new friends!

Each child has been paired up with a new buddy who they are going to help settle in school. The Year 6 children were brilliant role models throughout and looked after all of the younger children. It was wonderful to see the children working so well together.

Well done Year 6!
