Spirituality              Sunday 7th July - 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Morning reflection is issued every week by our Chaplain and is available on the school’s website:

We have all started our work on the final RE topic of the year.  This has a focus of the planet and the people on it.  Children in Year 3 will be learning about special places, and especially those of pilgrimage.  With holidays coming up, this may be a nice topic for conversation. 

Alternatively, Year 4 have started to think about Saints, and are full of enthusiasm about researching their own names and the names of their families.  Do your children know why you chose their name?

This week pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 enjoyed hearing about Joseph Bear's pilgrimage to the Holy Land.  As they went back to class they were given a Jerusalem Cross pilgrimage 'badge'.  The Jerusalem Cross is a design composed of 5 crosses. If your child has been wearing one, you may wish to ask them what the 5 crosses signify.

Table Talk Topic for this week - If both hands fall off a clock, is it still a clock? Just a reminder, that we have a Prayer Intention Book in the Reception area of each school. Please feel free to write your intentions in as you wish. Thank you to those who have added to it. Please take the time to read it when visiting the school.
