The Passion of Christ
In the lead up to Holy Week, children from each class reflected on the final week of Jesus’ life through drama and re-enacted each important stage of His journey. From Palm Sunday when Jesus entered Jerusalem with the crowds waving their palms in praise, to when Jesus ate his last supper with his disciples, to his arrest, trial and eventual execution and finally, His joyous resurrection and promise of eternal life. It was truly wonderful to see the children retell such an important story and we shared this virtually with the children to mark the beginning of Holy Week.
Care for Creation Week November 2021
In the Canticle of the Creatures, St Francis of Assisi praises God for some of the wonders of our ‘common home’, the Earth. In linking with COP26, we had a Care for Creation Week in school where we looked at the arts through St Francis' words and displayed our wonderful creations at our art exhibition. We also raised money for CAFOD by 'Going Green' with our Eco Warriors baking some yummy green treats to sell at the exhibition.
