It has been a positive start to the academic year and it has been wonderful to welcome new families to our school community, as well as to welcome back familiar faces. We started the year with a whole school Mass in the hall to celebrate Our Lady’s birthday on the 8th September. Our assemblies this half-term are focussed on the virtues of ‘Grateful and Generous’ and we are talking about ways that we can be grateful and generous, both at school and in our homes.

As we come to the final weeks of school, it is once again an opportunity for our children to share their many talents with you and each other.

Our half termly virtues are ‘intentional and prophetic’. We have been talking about ways that we can share knowledge and make good decisions.

Year Six pupils have demonstrated maturity and a positive attitude this week while completing their SATs.
As we are in the month of May, we especially remember Our Lady and there are some lovely prayer areas in classes with her displayed at the centre and we are looking forward to crowning the statue of Our Lady in Monday’s assembly.

This month at St Aloysius we are focusing on the virtues of “Learned” and “Wise”. Read our March newsletter for more details.
