Week Beginning 13th November 2023 Please see school calendar for events coming up! School Calendar
This weeks round up. The children have had a wonderful first week back. We shared an assembly thinking about All Souls and each class has contributed to our book of remembrance for this month. Some Y6 children attended an NPCAT Remembrance service on Friday and the whole of Y6 led a Remembrance liturgy in school. Our Y4 pupils have began visiting Nunthorpe Hall every Friday as part of their work on catholic social teaching. Mrs kemp and Mrs Lumley hosted our first Friendship builders meeting and some Y5/6 children attended a dodgeball competition.
