Newsletter Week 9 Spring 2020
Lateness
It is very important that your child has the right start to their day ON TIME.
Children who arrive late miss learning time, important instructions, or
explanations. It also causes the learning of other pupils to be
interrupted. Please ensure that your child is in school on time.

A Prayer for Ash Wedesday
O Jesus, you place on my forehead
the sign of your saving cross:
“Turn from sin and be faithful to the gospel”
How can I turn from sin unless i turn to you?
You speak, you raise your hand,
you touch my mind and call my name.
“Turn to the Lord your GOD again.”
These days of your favor
leave a blessing as you pass on me and all your people.
Turn to us, Lord GOD, and we shall turn to you.
Amen
Pupils in our school are growing to be faith-filled in their beliefs and hopeful for the future.
Our school is helping our pupils to grow by passing on the living and faith-filled tradition of Jesus Christ; by having persevering faith in the pupils, and by encouraging them, in turn, to have faith and hope in others.
