What’s on This Week?
Sunday was the launch of Catholic Education Week. This year’s theme is Serving the Common Good. Many thanks to the boys and girls who attended Mass this weekend as representatives of the school.
This week is also a focus week for Financial Education. All classes across the school will be learning about the importance of how best to manage their money. We are delighted that staff from HMRC will carry out workshops with classes focusing upon tax and finance. On Monday we will also welcome Enteprise is Business who will work with several classes on developing entrepreneurial skills. Please review your child’s Snapshot Jotters when they are sent home at the end of this week. Your comments are greatly valued.
