As part of our Catholic Education Week events, we welcome Mark Booker from SCIAF to St Bartholomew’s today. Mark is the charity’s Schools Officer and will be working with our Primary 5 pupils this afternoon.
A huge thank you to Mr Joe Bannan, a St Bartholomew’s parishioner and grandfather of one of our P4 pupils, for making yesterday’s Eucharistic Adoration possible. There was an amazing sense of peace and stillness in the oratory and many of the boys and girls told me afterwards how much they appreciated the experience. Thank you, Joe, for giving so generously of your time. It is very much appreciated.
It’s been a busy, busy week, but I’m definitely going to find a space in my day to have ‘Tea with Mr Young’ for last week’s Pupil of the Week winners. Paul from P3 turned up on Monday afternoon and has been waiting patiently ever since. Well, today’s the day, Paul!
(A joke for the grown-ups!)
Primary 4/3 really appreciated the special time yesterday when we took part in Eucharistic Adoration in the oratory. This was especially important to us as many of us begin our preparation for the Sacrament of First Eucharist which we will receive in May.
