We really were truly blessed on Tuesday - the May Procession was beautiful.

Our First Holy Communion children, all wore their special outfits and joined their class mates for a celebration before the procession.

 

 

Thank you to Father Mark and also all of the parents and parishioners who joined us and helped to make the event even more special.

After the holiday there will be changes to Friday afternoons. To try and make our "Golden Time" a little more sparkly we have decided to launch "Fitness Friday."

Children will be able to sign up for a range of exciting activities, such as track events, art and crafts and P4C.

Children will no longer need to bring in their own toys and activities on Fridays.

Thank you to the three parents who have put themselves forward. 

After the holidays ballot papers will be sent out to you along with personal statements from each candidate, to allow you to  cast your votes.
