You Will Never Stop Loving Me
The prayers this week take inspiration from last week’s Gospel, the Parable of the Prodigal Son, enabling children to deepen their understanding and experience of God’s unconditional love for them,
Please follow this link below for more information on this week’s Gospel and to share some interesting activities at home.

Well done to those on our leaderboard!
We have been extremely busy with our learning in Year FOUR this week. Here’s what we have been up to…
In English, the children have independently written their own twisted fairy tale. They have all listened brilliantly to feedback and put it into practice! Well done!
We’ve also continued reading Anglo-Saxon Boy as a class and finished “Help, My Gym Teacher is an Alien Overlord"
In Maths, the children have finished their fraction unit and moved onto decimals.
In Music, the children have continued playing their brass instruments. Keep playing at home! The hard work now will be worth it.
In RE, the children learned about St Vincent de Pail, how the corporal Works of Mercy connect with the Judgement of Nations parable and considered how they could live out the works of mercy.
In Geography, the children surveyed adults at home (THANK YOU!) and then completed a bar chart before analysing the data.
In PE, the children continued their target game unit, practicing throwing, running and dodging before playing a game like cross the river.
GULP Challenge
The GULP challenge ends on Sunday. Please bring in your signed GULP diaries to school on Monday
Wellbeing Wednesday
This week, the children took time to spread some joy. Writing short complements to others. It was wonderful to see their faces light up!
We’ve continued to put “I breathe in calm, I breathe out stress” into practice.
At Our Lady's we like to support our parents/carers in Online Safety matters.
Keeping children and young people safe online is one of the biggest challenges facing society today and it is all of our responsibility to ensure that children are educated to make positive, informed choices when they are online.
This month’s online safety guide gives helpful advice about…
What Parents & Educators Need to Know about Bluesky Social App. This free guide discusses the growing popularity of Bluesky, a public-first microblogging social media platform, and explores what parents and educators can do to ensure children's safety when using the app.
We hope you find these guides informative and helpful in promoting the positive use of technology to make the online world a better and safer place for us all. Thank you.
