Hi Parents

BLACK OUT DAY was well supported by our staff and students on Friday. Everyone looked great in black and lots of goodies were collected for the foodbank. Thank you for your contribution towards this. 

All Saints/Souls Liturgy 

This is a liturgy to remember those close to us who have died. Students will be invited to write down the names of these people if they want to, and place them in a class basket. The basket will be brought forward at the liturgy.

Halloween is a secular holiday that comes the night before All Saints' Day.

All Saints' Day is on November 1, and is dedicated to the saints of the Church, which are all those who have attained heaven. 

All Souls' Day in on November 2, and is dedicated to those who have died and not yet reached heaven.

Grandparents/Grandfriends day

This year's programme will be a little different from previous years. Details will be finalised on Monday, so please check the blog during the week. 

Testing

It's end of year testing time already! 

Reading: Read the story. Retell the story. Answer questions from the story. 

Writing: Recount writing- A fun day with friends.

Maths: Knowledge and Strategy testing.

Because most of the testing is individual, there will be quite a few disruptions to our normal programme this week.

If you are able to help out by reading with individual children or reading groups this week, please let me know. 

Have a great week.
