Times tables resources

Many thanks to Tom Barretts ICT in my classroom site for these times table sites to help us reach our half term targets.
The Multiflyer site is a fantastic site which the player (it really feels like a game) travels around the solar system answering multiplication questions. It can give printout of results and can show progress over time.

A reflect upon our first confession.

Today we collected our feeling about the Sacrament of Confession which we made last Saturday, here is a child's view of the service.

On Saturday 22nd November I received the Sacrament of Reconciliation. It is the second Sacrament that I have received. I went to church with my mum,dad and sister. When I was waiting I felt nervous, sick and brave. Father David helped me as God forgave my sins.

Christmas Play songs

Yes its that time of year again and we are busy preparing for our production of "Are we nearly there yet."
We have been learning our songs which have been sent home tonight and we will from Wednesday be practicing with Year 4 so we are ready for our performance on the 3rd December.
You will see on your left we have selected five of the songs for you to vote fo. Please choose your favourite and next week we can see which song is the most popular.

Sacrament of Reconciliation

On Saturday morning the Catholic members of Year 3 celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation at Sacred Heart and Holy Souls Parish Church. This marked the end of our preparation programme which the Lost Sheep video below played a large part in.

A short prayer service led by Father David was followed by the children making their first confession and receiving God's forgiveness.

It was a spiritual occasion which was beautifully observed by all who were there.

Enrolment Mass

Today we gathered at Sacred Heart and Holy Souls church to enrole upon our preparation for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and the Blessed Eucharist.
Well done to all those who were there and a special mention of thanks to the readers who read well and the two children who had to stand in at the last moment. (You know who you are.)

Don't forget we have a meeting upon Thursday which will be led by Father David. This will explore the Sacrament of Reconciliation in preparation for our receiving the Sacrament on Saturday 22nd November.
