All Souls’ Got Talent 2024… What a show!

We were blown away by every single talent show performance this morning! For the children to stand up and perform with such confidence in front of a big audience was amazing. The talent was so strong that we couldn’t decide on just one winner and so our congratulations go to Cara King (Year 2 – Irish Dancing) and Ellie Gray (Year 5 – singing).

Thank you to all of the finalists and their families for helping them to prepare for today. To all those who auditioned; do not underestimate just how incredible putting yourself forward is! You never fail to make us proud!

Thank you to Mrs Rae and the school council for organising such a wonderful event.

Maundy Thursday

28th March 2024Roisin McGrath

Today marks the beginning of the most important few days in the Church’s calendar. Starting on Palm Sunday, we have been journeying through Holy Week whilst on our Easter break. We hope you have managed to take some time to enjoy time together, relax, rest as well as reflect on this special time of year.

During his Last Supper on the night before he died, Jesus gave us the gift of himself when he took bread and wine and said: This is my Body. This is my Blood. This is me. The Bread of Life. Food for the Journey.

As Catholics, we believe that part of Jesus is within each of us. We are his hands and his feet. With everything currently going on in our world today, remember that how we treat those closest to us is a reflection of how we expect to be treated. Take time today to think of those who give themselves to others so that they can live. To parents, to emergency workers, to aid workers, to those protecting the most vulnerable, thank you for all you do.

If you wish to attend mass today, the mass at All Souls Church begins at 7.30pm with solemn watching until midnight.

Attendance Awards

This term, we have had a competition within our classes. Every time this term we have been in 100% our name went into a box. Today, the Well-being Captains picked a name out of each box (year) and they won a voucher. Well done to everyone, who won and who got their name into the box.

 

Oral Health: Looking after our pearly whites!

21st March 2024Madeleine Corkerry

Year 1 were very lucky to be given some toothbrushes and toothpaste by the dentists that popped in to visit us earlier in the week. Some of the children were superstar patients having their teeth checked and counted.

We learnt about the importance of brushing our teeth and what we should eat/drink to look after them! We practiced the correct toothbrushing technique and even had a dance to a toothbrushing song. Thank you to our wonderful NHS for providing these for the children and inspiring us to look after our teeth!

KS1 Gymnastics

12th March 2024Mr R YOUSON

Yesterday 10 children from Years 1 and 2 took part in a gymnastics competition at Tribe Gymnastics. This was the first time that any of them had represented the school in a sporting event and they certainly did themselves and the school proud. Although they were a little nervous at the beginning this didn’t show when they performed their floor and vault routines as they completed them with huge smiles on their faces. We await the results as more schools are competing over the next few days. Well done everyone, you were brilliant!

A Trip to the National Space Centre

10th March 2024Madeleine Corkerry

Year 1 had such a fantastic day on their trip to the National Space Centre with Year 5!

The children were very excited to travel on a double-decker coach to Leicester and enjoyed looking out for the brown tourist road signs on our journey. When we arrived it was time to visit the Planetarium. The children were in awe and loved the experience of feeling like we were really in space.

The children learnt lots of new facts about the planets, and the lives of astronauts and explored many new space craft. Mrs Hassan’s group loved driving the robotic Mars rover and Miss Dillon’s group was fantastic at exploring all of the interactive resources. Mrs Corkerry’s group enjoyed trying to beat her on the reaction test!

The children were so polite and their behaviour was exemplary on a busy day at the National Space Centre. We are so proud of every one of them and look forward to more trips exploring new places soon!

Competition!

8th March 2024Michelle Smith

We were overwhelmed with the many fantastic entries we had for our competition! It was a very difficult job to judge them! They were all so brilliant! Who knew cardboard tubes could be so creative! Well done to our winners who won a book voucher and our runners up who won a sweet treat!

World Book Day!

8th March 2024Michelle Smith

We had such a brilliant day celebrating world book day in school. The children (and staff!) had made a huge effort to dress up and all looked fantastic! The reading cafe was a success and was enjoyed by the children and the adults. Thank you to all who came. The children really enjoyed having you come into school for a short while.
