Headteachers Roundup

Dear parents and carers,

We started this week with our Prayer and worship gatherings on Monday. We focused on the previous Sunday’s Mass readings especially the episode when John the Baptist spoke about Jesus and introduced him as the Son of God. Children then reflected on the example of John; how they too can be witnesses to Christ.

This week we continued with our work of reviewing the school Menu. We are being supported by ‘Chefs in schools’ who are working with our kitchen staff to develop new recipes and introduce new dishes. They are working hard to prepare food using fresh ingredients every day. Feedback from children seem to be very positive. We will continue to develop this further to make sure all our children are getting nutritious meals everyday.

This week, we also had a practice of our Lockdown Procedures. We do such practice to make sure all pupils and staff stay safe at all times and that they know how to react and what procedures to follow in the event of a real Lockdown of the school. All children, including our little ones showed they are very able to follow all instructions and to take the right precautions. In the unlikely event that we have to Lock down the school for real, all parents will instantly receive emails and texts to inform them about the situation and developments.

Today, Year 2J led our Friday class assembly and told us about food chains in science, the future aspirations they talked about as part of LIFESAVERS Financial Education Programme and they also shared inspiring writing related to the book ‘The Journey Home’.

Thank you and have a good weekend.

Online Safety

The internet has changed all of our lives, particularly our children. For parents and carers this opens up a whole new world of things to be aware of. For many of us, this can all be a bit too much.

The ThinkuKnow website is really helpful and aims to make online parenting simple and offers many practical tips and simple guidance.
