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.

As we begin Lent, we focus as a school community on praying, fasting and giving. Fr Benedict, our School Chaplain, led a distribution of ashes service and a staff professional development session on Ash Wednesday to help us prepare fully for the season of reflection and preparation.

Our children have continued to demonstrate the termly virtues of ‘eloquent’ and ‘truthful’ in school.

It has been a busy start to the year with Masses, visits from the Teddy Bear Hospital for some of our younger pupils and School Council and Eco-Council meetings.

As we reflect on the past term and 2022 as a whole, we have a lot to celebrate. The children have grown in knowledge and love for others and demonstrated excellent service to each other and our community. 2022 saw a strong set of end of key stage data and we were above national average in both our end of Key Stage One and Key Stage Two data.
