We are appealing for the help of parents and friends of Our Lady of the Missions to help us develop our outdoor learning provision and playground facilities. The aim is to create a learning environment that will allow our children to develop a range of important physical, social and academic skills whilst having fun outdoors. It will also enhance the playground experience for our pupils by providing them with a larger, more attractive social space to meet and play.

Please see attached document for further details.

The school will be closed on Thursday 8th June as it is being used as a Polling Station for the General Election.

BEST WISHES to all in our school community and beyond who are observing the holy month of Ramadan, which started on 27 May.

We know it is a hugely important time for our Muslim families as they come together with family and friends in fasting, reflection, prayer and thinking of those less fortunate – extra charity is given in this month.

For those of us who are not familiar with Ramadan, Muslims believe that during Ramadan, the Qu’ran, the holy book of Islam, was revealed to mankind through the Prophet Muhammad. Many therefore devote extra time to the study of the Quran during this time. The end of Ramadan brings the festival Eid-ul-Fitr which will fall around 26 June.

Ramadan Mubarak to you all!
