To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 1:1-3, New King James Version)

Well done!

Well done Year 6 for a fantastic Enrolment Mass. You all made your promise beautifully. Well done also to all the readers and those in the choir. Year 3 - it was wonderful to see so many of you there!

Have you seen the beautiful new sewing display by the Art Club?

Have you seen our new displays in the Hall?

All our displays share stories from the bible. Some are parables and some are miracles. Do you know the stories?

Don't Forget

Don't forget Year 6's Enrolment Mass on Sunday at 10:00am in Church. If you can come and sing in the choir, or just come with your family, it would be lovely to see you.
