The message of closing the old, and entering the new is particularly pertinent to a coupl eof memebrs of our staff. Rachel Smith gets married on New Years Eve, returning with a surname that really writes itself for banter - Fell. After Christmas, Rachel returns to us as Mrs Fell. 

Although not my announcement by any means, all the staff are excited about the continuing baby boom amongst our staff - Katy and her partner Eck have announced to staff that they are expecting their 1st baby. So we'll watch Katy bloom next year, before she leaves us around June time. 

After school sports clubs have now finished for this half term. It is getting too dark at the end of the session when outside and the hall is being used to set up for the nativity/carol performances throughout this week. We hope those involved have enjoyed clubs this half term. We will be sending out messages soon about clubs for next half term. (Thanks Jenny for all the clubs this term - theres be loads!)

Fr David's Sabbatical Adventure

We are both excited and a little wistful to announce that Fr David,  Chair of Governors, will be embarking on a well-deserved sabbatical, starting in the new year. Fr David has been an integral part of our school community, offering guidance, wisdom, and an unwavering dedication to the wellbeing and education of the kids and staff. His sabbatical journey takes him to the beautiful and historic city of Assisi in Italy, the birthplace of St. Francis. This retreat will not only offer him a chance for rest and rejuvenation but also an opportunity to walk in the footsteps of one of history's most revered saints, exploring the rich spiritual and cultural heritage of the area. We eagerly anticipate the fresh perspectives and inspiring stories he will bring back to us. During his three-month leave, we wish Fr David a journey filled with peace, enlightenment, and joy. We look forward to welcoming him back with open arms, ready to hear all about his adventures in Assisi. Fr Mike, Dr Gibson, Mr Pollard and Ruth Woods will be fulfilling the role of Chair of Governors in David's absence.
