THE CATHOLIC SCHOOL PUPIL PROFILE
AT ST. JUDE’S
This half term’s value—Intentional and
Prophetic. The Bible tells us: 1 John 2:’Whoever
keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is
perfected. By this we may know that we are in
him.’
This reminds us to be faithful to the word of
God and to do what we know is right, even when
it is hard to do so.
Congratulations to those who received
certificates this half term.

WINNING HOUSE TEAM!
It was a close call
for all teams but St.
Anne pipped everyone
to the post! We had a
House Team Quiz on
Monday to finish off
the term’s hard work.
The winning team
were rewarded with a
Sports Party on
Thursday.
Y4 & Y5 AT ST CHADS
Year Four and Year Five worked hard to learn
some difficult songs for their performance at St.
Chad's Cathedral. The children were joined by
three other schools for a Mass that was lead by
a Deacon (who was an ex-student from St.
Jude's!) "It was a challenge to stand on the altar in front of everyone to sing our songs on our own!" - Dion "We had to sing loud and clearly so that our voices filled the Cathedral - I was nervous." - Rhea "The Cathedral was big and beautiful - I would like to go back there again." - Sogol "All the schools worked hard together to give a beautiful performance during the workshops and Mass." - Emilia

ATTENDANCE
Please note it is a parents responsibility to contact school on the first day of absence. You should also update the
school of your child’s condition if they continue to be absent from school for more than two days. It is expected
that if your child is ill longer than two days, you would seek medical attention and therefore be able to provide
medical evidence eg. a doctor’s appointment slip.
Y1 VISIT TO BOTANICAL GARDENS
Year 1 had a fantastic time last Friday at
the Botanical Gardens. They saw and drew
lots of tropical plants and lots of different
colours on a walk. The children were a
credit to the school and had lots of fun.
Y5 AND Y6 HANDBALL TOURNAMENT
Last Friday, the Year 5/6 handball team
took part in the Birmingham School Games
Finals. After many hard fought games,
they missed out on the top four places.
However, they are one of the top eleven
teams in Birmingham. Well done!

Wishing all our Y6 leavers good luck for their next chapter to secondary school.
We will miss you all. Hopefully you have enjoyed your time at St. Jude’s and
learnt may things—most importantly, how to be good, kind, honest people. It has
honestly been a privilege to watch you grow and develop in to a Year Six class
that we are very proud of.
There have been many memories made in your time here and some very special
ones this week.
It’s hard to believe that, after nineteen years working at St. Jude’s, our lovely Office
Manager, Mrs Russell, is retiring. We would like to thank her for her unwavering
commitment to the school and her never-ending patience and hard work. Most of all,
we would like to thank her for her kindness and friendship to so many of us over the
years. We are going to miss her greatly but equally wish her the very happiest time
ahead as she takes the next step on her journey. We held a prayer service in school
for her today which was attended by her family members and Father Philip who gave
her a special blessing.
