Stewardship - Being Responsible Guardians of our World. 

The children worked in eight groups made up of members of the different school houses.  They were allocated an area of the school grounds and spent the afternoon weeding, planting, cutting back and generally tidying up our school grounds.  The aim of the afternoon was to understand how care of our environment and being out of door are all very good for our well being and mental health.  Being responsible guardians of our world is also one of the principles of Catholic Social Teaching that we have chosen to focus on.

Thank you to the Young Shakespeare Company for 17 years of outstanding performances for our school.  We love it!

Reading for pleasure is so important to our education and well being!  

Listening to stories is key to our love of learning.

As part of science week the children were asked to create their own invention for the If I were an engineer competition. They could invent anything, but generally they thought about things that would help those around them.

We are so pleased to say that this year we had some outstanding entries and have had a record amount make the finals out of all the schools in the South-East of England.

We had 8 Highly Commendended:

YR3 Alex "Automatic Pencil Grip"

YR3 Eliza "Konveyor Carrier"

YR3 Freya "Epic Speech Machine"

YR4 Maks "Pain Reactor"

They will all go on display in an exhibition at Canterbury Christchurch University on 5th and 6th July.
