Family Mass

Well done to Year 6 for leading their Enrolment Mass this morning.

You made your Enrolment Promise very clearly before the rest of the Parish.

It was also a great oppotunity to hear and reflect upon the Beatitudes which we heard about in the Gospel.

Well done to all those who came and sang in the choir. Year 3, it was fabulous to see so many of you. Don't forget those House Points that Mrs Aldred gave to you all.
