HUGE well done to our Sportshall Athletics team who competed at Witton Park High School last night. They showed courage & bravery and absolutely smashed all their events. They had to compete in 6 running events and 6 field events and ended gaining 2nd Place.
I AM SO SO SO PROUD OF THEM ALL 🥈

This year is very special for the Catholic Church as we celebrate the Jubilee Year. To begin our celebrations in school, the G.I.F.T. team led the whole school worship. They did a fantastic job of letting everyone know why Catholics are celebrating the Jubilee Year, how this will be done and how we will celebrate in school. During the Jubilee, many Catholics take a pilgrimage to Rome. Here they are able to connect with God and make a renewed commitment to their faith. The theme of Jubilee 2025 is hope. Hope helps us not to give up and tells us something new and bright is coming. God gives us hope. The symbol shows a colourful image representing people from different countries in unity. The anchor symbolises God's love. There is a figure holding the cross at the front and there are rough waves underneath, symbolising the difficult times we pass through in life.
“For all of us, may the Jubilee be an opportunity to be renewed in hope.”
Pope Francis

Year six have been investigating how our lungs, heart and blood vessels all work together to create our circulatory system. Stay tuned for some dissections of lamb's hearts.
Maria Hall came to school today to work with all our pupils and staff, showing us good examples of how to lead prayer time with our classes.
Today Year 5 took part in a full day of active learning as part of the 'Joy of Moving' project run by Blackburn Rovers. The children learnt about how to stay fit and healthy and the importance of a balanced diet and exercise on the body.

Congratulations to these pupils who have achieved their Bronze Attendance Award for this term.
Our GIFT Team led a beautiful reconciliation service as part of our preparations during Advent for Christmas. It gave us an opportunity to come together as a community and to think about the times when we may not have always done the right things, to have the chance to say sorry and reflect on the ways that we can become closer to God.
Our amazing Key Stage 1 children put on an amazing show.
Congratulations to the winners of our Christmas Hamper Raffle. There really were some super prizes this year. As always a huge thank you to everyone who donated items, bought raffle tickets and came to the fayre. Without your support these events would not be possible. We saw lots of children and families having fun and we hope that you enjoyed yourselves. All of the money raised will go towards providing additional activities and resources to our pupils.
We had so much fun during our Intra-house competitions. Well done to St David who were the overall winners 🏆⭐️
