During our Lenten journey, we have been undertaking Cafod's 'The Big Lent Walk.' As a school, we walked around the playground to a combined distance of over 200km! The aim was to raise money to help fight global poverty. So far we have raised £237.33.

Today Year 6 went to church to find out more about confession. Afterwards the class was given the opportunity to go to confession to help them in their Lent preparations.
As part of St Joseph's Day celebrations, Y5 & Y6 created wood decorations. They produced some stunning designs.
Year 6 gave one of their wood decorations as a gift to their Reception Class buddies.
As part of St Joseph's Day celebrations, the children drew pictures of St Joseph. These were turned into keyrings along with a prayer to St Joseph.
For St Joseph's Day this year we focused on offering prayers and support to refugees. St Joseph himself was a refugee when the Holy Family fled to Egypt.
The children were invited to write prayers offering support to refugees. As part of a prayer & liturgy session these prayers were then placed under and around our sleeping St Joseph statue.
