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.

Congratulations - Year 3 First Holy Communions!

First Holy Communion Meeting - Thank you!

Thank you all for attending our meeting in church, this afternoon.  I hope we managed to answer any queries you may have had; if there is anything you may need to ask over the next few weeks, please do not hesitate to come and speak to a member of Year 3 staff at the end of the school day.

One thing we need to confirm is that professional photos in the school hall will not be available before the 9.30 masses -  I apologise for any confusion I may have caused!

As we stated. the children are preparing well and will be wonderful on the day - please can we encourage you to practise mass responses, prayers and any readings with your children.

We are all very excited as it is now so close!

God Bless,

Miss Wood

Year 3 First Holy Communion - Alton Castle Retreat Day, 2015!

Today, Year 3 attended their Retreat Day at Alton Castle, in preparation for their First Holy Communion.

We were lucky that the weather was kind (even though it was slightly chilly!), which meant we managed to take part in the many team building tasks outside.

We had a fabulous day and would like to thank Father Craig for joining us, and the group leaders of Alton Castle for making our day so memorable.

We feel blessed to have been prepared for this most Holy Sacrament in such an exciting and spiritual way, and feel ready to Share The Lord's Supper within the next few weeks.
