Home learning (week 2)
As we settle into home learning, we realise what we miss the most, I miss the ‘hello’s’ and the stories, the hugs and the happy faces of successful learning from our children. I miss all the staff at Our Lady’s, the support and kindness. But I also have found it in other ways, the internet is the most wonderful invention, we keep in contact with loved ones. I have daily facetime with my Mum, who lives around 300 miles away. i have lovely emails with your art and chat. We have our whole school community in prayer each night. It is often in the darkest skies, we find the brightest stars…

Week Four
The Next Step
This is a very strange week, as we prepare for the unknown. We are all in the same boat and need to work together and help each other where we can. As from 3.30 today school is now closed to the majority of us and we are led by our Government for instruction and guidance. Here at Our Lady’s, we truly do love each other and mean it when we say, if we can help, we will. All class teachers will be writing a daily teaching blog for the children to do at home.
I also will be creating an ART activity blog for each class on the day they normally have art with me….

As the week has drawn to a close, the lunch time team have been overcome with the kindness and calmness of the children as the week has unfolded. It has been such a joy to see that in such difficult circumstances, they have had moments to be themselves and to have time with their friends playing, laughing and having fun. The love and compassion they have shared with one another has been quite humbling.
Table of the Week: The Team have decided that All houses are star table, children, you have been absolutely wonderful this week, thank you.
Role Model and Marvelous Manners: Again, the Team has decided that each and every child should receive both role model and marvelous manners. We are so proud of you all. Thank you so much children.
God Bless

Craig McCann - Athlete visit. 'Grasp every opportunity that comes your way!'
It is not everyday that an athlete visits your school, let alone a Paralympic athlete. So, when we were given the opportunity for Craig McCann to visit, of course we said yes! Throughout the morning, all of the children visited the hall to complete a rather tricky, fitness class.
