Primary 7 are feeling refreshed and ready to work hard after their Christmas break. The pupils are continuing to show maturity and enthusiasm in their role as paired reading partners and peer mediators. We also have the responsibility of organising the Golden Time clubs this term so we have been very busy! For the next six weeks we are lucky enough to have a French Assistant (Romane) who will be working with us every Tuesday. The children have thoroughly enjoyed learning about the French culture and of course having an opportunity to speak French with a native speaker.

Term 3 is a very exciting one for Primary 7. With the special Sacrament – Confirmation – approaching, the boys and girls will be reflecting and preparing for a new journey in their Faith. In class we have been learning about the life and work of modern day Saints such as Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina and Saint Teresa of Calcutta. We look forward to our Confirmation preparation and retreat day next month.
