Welcome Back!

It has been a real pleasure to spend time with Year 6 this week and hear all about their summer break. They have  quickly settled back into the routine of learning, and have spent much of this week reflecting on what it is to be a leader. We also welcomed a new child to our class, John Joseph.

Today was our Leadership Pilgrimage to Westminster Cathedral.  We were supported by Fr Shaun, Deacon Sean and Amanda on this trip and their presence enabled us to spend our time learning about the saints who have a special chapel dedicated to them there such as St Peter, St Paul etc.  The children got very involved and showed such reverence there whilst they journeyed around the cathedral lead by either Fr Shaun or Deacon Sean.

During this academic year the children will be experiencing a leadership role and will see how their involvement reinforces their commitment to Catholic Social Teaching to make a positive change, rooted in faith in God, in our school and parish community.

Our PE days this term are Tuesday and Wednesday. Details about swimming will be emailed in a separate letter.  Our meet the teacher meeting is on Monday.  Please see the newsletter for other dates relevant to you.

Wishing you and your families a lovely weekend.

Home Learning: 

For our upcoming history unit, the children need to have the dates of birth of some family members. This only needs to be the year. Ideally they would have a parent, a grandparent and a great grandparent.  They only need one date per generation as otherwise their timelines can become unclear.
