Year 4 were lucky enough to be visited by two Year 12 students from QE boys this week. We took part in an interactive workshop about the values and beliefs of Islam.

Thank you to the parents who helped us take the children in Years 3 and 4 and Years 5 and 6 to St Peters and St Gregory’s to celebrate the Feast of St Peter and St Paul. I think everyone agreed the children were superb! The Year 3 and 4 children’s behaviour was excellent and […]

The children sang a beautiful song called ‘ Song of Simeon. Candles symbolise […]

Thank you to Father James  for celebrating Mass with Class 5C on Tuesday. The Gospel reading was about healing. The Bible speaks often of miraculous healing through the work of Jesus Christ. The children sang beautifully and read so reverently. As always we were delighted that so many of our parents could gather with us. […]
