Mothers Day Stall

Our mothers day stall was so much fun last Thursday. The gifts were lovely and the children really enjoyed choosing something special for their mums and nans as well. We hope all of our the special ladies in our lives had a wonderful day and felt pampered and a little spoilt.

Catholic Schools Week - Display

Yesterday, all families received a pack with an explanation letter and coloured hands. We invite each family member to decorate a coloured hand (don't forget your name!) and return the hands to school. These hands will be used to create a whole school display to celebrate working 'hand in hand' to provide 200 years of Catholic Education and to moving forward with our faith. If you require more hands, these can be collected from your child's teacher or from the office. Please return all hands by this Friday, 14th May.
