These eager young learners were very keen to show off their achievements to Mrs Duffy on Friday 9th January. Not content with learning INSIDE school, these pupils are learning new skills outside of school such as team work, commitment and effort. Well done! Remember to add your achievements to your Rose Trainer Achievement record card.
Cathedral finished the first week of the new term with a flurry (albeit a very small one) of snow. Not put off by the lack of snowflakes, these young learners worked together and showed true teamwork to build this miniature snowman!
Cathedral’s Primary 3/4 learners have been delving into the world of money, exploring how it works and why it plays such an important role in everyday life. To bring their learning to life, they set up their very own shop in the Learning Street during the first week of term, complete with products, price labels and daily opportunities to practise buying and selling.
Cathedral’s twelve House Captains were thrilled to open a parcel delivered to the school on Tuesday 6th January. Inside, they discovered an impressive steel time capsule, ready to be filled with documents and objects to mark the end of our school’s 150th anniversary celebrations.
To mark the start of 2026, our welcome board at the main entrance was given a refresh on Tuesday 6th January, featuring brand new photos of some of our wonderful learners. Cathedral is a vibrant and diverse community, with more than twenty languages spoken across our school, and this richness is reflected in the array of smiling faces on the board.
