Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost! We pray for Year 6 during their preparation for Confirmation

This Sunday sees the end of 50 days of Easter, and welcomes the Feast of Pentecost - when the Holy Spirit entered the hearts of Jesus' disciples.

We look forward to seeing you at mass to celebrate this Holy Day.

When we return to school we will explore this most joyous moment.  For now, you may want to look at the video below to help you understand the event.

The Holy Spirit fills us with the Fruits and Gifts we need to spread the Good News, as disciples of Jesus.  The video link below may help you to remember these - think about how you will use the Fruits of the Holy Spirit throughout your Journey.


We continue to pray for Year 6, as they prepare to receive the Holy Spirit, through the Sacrament of Confirmation.

The Angelus - May, The Month of Mary

Next week in RE, Year 3 will be learning about and reciting The Angelus, in readiness for our May Procession/Mary Day on Friday (we will be wearing something blue and raising money for our charity Cafod, who are working to support those who have suffered in the recent earthquakes in Nepal.)

The Angelus reminds us of the Annunciation, when the Angel Gabriel appeared to Mary with great news!
When we pray The Angelus with humility and love, we are sharing Mary's faith in God's goodness. We are blessed that we can ask both God and Our Blessed Mother for their help on our journey towards Eternal Life!

We pray to Mary in a special way...what prayer do we say?  This prayer also forms part of The Angelus.
