Key Messages of the forthcoming Gospel Readings…

•Jesus wants to be the reason that we live, because following Him is how we can truly live life to the full.

When Jesus is the reason that we live, we want to GIVE, ACT, PRAY not just during Lent but all year round!

Please have a look at this Parent Newsletter linked with our weekly whole school and class worship…

Lenten Reflections

Throughout Lent we would like to invite all children and families to join us in the school hall for a short Lenten reflection led by Father Frank.

This will be held once every week at 8:30am and will begin from Tuesday 7th March, continuing until Tuesday 28th March.

We do hope you can join us for this opportunity to gather as a faith community to reflect on the true value and meaning of Lent.

YEAR 3 CLASS TRIP

On Thursday 30th March, Year 3 will be going on a class trip to Ribchester Roman Museum. This is an exciting opportunity for the children to be immersed in Roman Britain History, they will have the chance to handle a range of hands-on artefacts and there are also the remains of a Roman Fort on the site to explore.

The children have been given a letter explaining all of the details.

Our learning this week…

In RE, we have been researching Jesus’ Last Supper with his disciples and friends. We thought about the key messages for Christians, and how this links to the sharing of the Eucharist during Mass.

In English we have been writing a narrative setting description, linked to our class text ‘Rhythm of the Rain’, the children were encouraged to use a range of conjunctions, adverbs and prepositional phrases to add more interest and detail into their description writing.

In Maths this week, we have been solving addition and subtraction calculations, involving length. We have also been finding the perimeters of a range of 2D shapes, using mm, cm and m as units of measures.
