You are invited to join Year 5 and 6 for their Class Mass on Wednesday 16th February 2022 at 9.30am.
Reception will also be joining Year 6 as their prayer friends for the first time. We are very much looking forward to sharing in this special celebration together and hope you can join us.
Year 5 have been learning how to stay safe when online gaming. They wrote advice to people online who felt under pressure as well as for those players putting pressure on others.
After that, they created a display to remind us how we can ensure that everyone feels safe, happy and respected when playing together online.
Well done to Jerusalem who were this week’s winners!
This week we have welcomed Mrs O’Shea to Year 5. She has been teaching us how to write adventure stories and got us to think carefully about our sentences. We have particularly enjoyed including show not tell in our writing to describe our characters’ thoughts and feelings. We are looking forward to showing you some of our published pieces soon!
Also in Year 5 this week, we have been learning about martyrs. We started learning about this at Alton Castle where we were taught about St Jose Sanchez Del Rio. St Oscar Romero has been a focus for us in our RE lessons. We have looked at his life and explored how he lived out Jesus’ teachings in the Parable of the Good Samaritan.
Following our Vocation assembly on Monday the children have been set their Spring Project. The letter below has been sent to all parents via email to explain what the children’s task is in more detail.
I cannot wait to see their projects on their chosen person and hear all about the reasons for their choice. The children had some fantastic ideas in the assembly of people they could choose and demonstrated a fantastic understanding of following a call to serve.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in contact,
Mrs McGrath
Wishing all of our children and families a very
‘Happy New Year!’
May our Lord fulfil all your new year wishes and keep you and your family healthy and happy.
