Thank you to everyone who was able to join us at our Easter Music Concert. The children performed a range of instruments, from saxophones, clarinets, piano and guitar. It was wonderful to see Year 4 playing their brass instruments and Year 3 starting the convert with glockenspiels. What a superb way to begin to draw to a close, our Lent Term! #easter #concert #perform #musiclover

As part of faith day, the children in Year 2, 4, and 6 have been learning about the Catholic faith. From exploring what it might be like to be The Pope, designing pectoral crosses, understanding The Rosary and the importance of iconography, the children had a very creative and meaningfully day. #catholicchurch #catholic #faith #religion
