In the.midst of the autumn leaves, the children have been cooking apples today, over an open fire. Delicious, especially when they are with chocolate.

This month we are exploring British Values, set by the UK Government for all schools. Together we can explore culture, the democratic process, freedoms to hold different beliefs, showing mutual respect. We are starting with Mutual Respect and what this looks like in our daily life. #british #values #freedom #respect

God of the living and the dead, today we remember our ancestors and those we love who have gone before us in death. Thinking of those who are remembering loved ones who have died.

Heavenly Father,
We celebrate Saints Day, we honour St. Mary, the namesake of our school. We thank you for her example of faith, love, and service.

May her spirit guide us as we strive to be kind, compassionate, and respectful to all. May we be a source of light and hope in the world, just as she was.
We ask for your blessing on our school community, on our teachers, and on our students.

May we grow in knowledge and wisdom, and may we always be open to your love and guidance.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray.
Amen.
