USE THE GIFTS GIVEN TO YOU BY THE HOLY SPIRIT
Christ has no body now on earth but yours, no hands but yours, no feet but yours …
Yours are the feet with which he is to go about doing good, and yours are the hands with which he is to bless us now.
St Teresa of Avila (1515 – 1582)
AROUND THE WORLD WINNER
Congratulations to AFRICA house who are the winners of our House Points competition. The Captain and Vice-Captain will decide on the reward, which will be given before the end of half term. All houses will start from England again after the half-term holiday.
Great attendance last week! Well done – let’s keep this up and try to improve the
average so far this year.
Fr McGinn enjoyed his 75th Birthday celebrations in school last week. He had a lovely lunch with children from Key Stage 1, was presented with cards made by each class, had a birthday cake presented to him which had been made by Mofe and Temi’s grandma, and he received a surprise gift. Fr received a chauffeur driven trip in the Yorkshire Dales, to which he was absolutely delighted. Thank you for your contributions. If you would still like to contribute to Fr’s gift, please put your donation in an envelope marked ‘75’ and send it to school.
