🌻 Growing Sunflowers 🌻Year 1 had a fantastic time planting their very own sunflowers as part of their Science learning. We explored how plants grow and what they need to stay healthy, before getting hands-on and becoming enthusiastic young gardeners! 🌱🪏

In Year 3, we explored Palm Sunday in our RE lesson, learning about what happened and thinking about how the people in the crowd might have felt. To help us understand the importance and excitement of Jesus’ arrival, we recreated the scene by waving palm leaves and cheering together. It gave us a real sense of the scale of the event and was a very fun and memorable experience!

Congratulations to all the Year 5 pupils who took part in the competition today. They showed great effort throughout and had a fantastic time. It was wonderful to see such strong teamwork, with everyone supporting and encouraging each other.

Today pupils who are making their First Holy Communion in June, made their First Confession at St Thomas More Church. Each child met with Father Damian and sat side by side with him to confess their sins and received a simple penance before being granted absolution. They then lit a candle in the church. The quiet service was attended by teachers and parents, highlighting the shared commitment of the school and parish to support our children as they prepare to receive the Eucharist for the first time.
 

Year 6 had an exciting afternoon showing off our rugby skills. Both teams demonstrated great perseverance, teamwork and sportsmanship. One team made it through to the semi-finals, and we were thrilled to come away with second place! All of the children should be proud of their fantastic performance on the field.
