Epiphany - The Three Wise Men

Today we celebrate the Feast of Epiphany - we think of the journey the Three Wise Men took whilst following the star to Bethlehem to welcome the New King.

Where has your Journey of Faith taken you this Christmas?

Well done Holy Souls - your Nativity performances were fantastic!

A massive WELL DONE to all of the children at  Holy Souls School - we have watched and performed a total of 5 Nativities, involving all children from Reception classes right up to Year 6!  The story of The First Christmas has been explained to us in so many different ways; through music, singing and acting.  (Check out the Holy Souls website to see the wonderful pictures!)

These performances have prepared us well in our understanding and appreciation of this most special season.

As we are in our final week at school, we are all in festive spirits.  We have many Christmas parties to celebrate this week and are looking forward to Christmas dinner too (YUM YUM)!
