Catholic Life of our School

Term 1 Catholic life

Welcome Back and School Mission We warmly welcomed our children back to school in September, reminding them of our school mission statement: "Striving to be the best we can, guided by the light of Christ."
Shining Bright: Our first school mass of the year featured the Gospel of Matthew, encouraging our school community to "let our lights shine." The children reflected on how they could make a positive impact and be beacons of hope in our school.
Love Thy Neighbour For terms 1 and 2, our gospel theme is "Love Thy Neighbour," inspired by the parable of The Good Samaritan. Classes created relationships charters with their new teachers to explore how to treat others with kindness and compassion.
We celebrated the International Day of Peace on September 21st with a whole-school launch. The children decorated doves with prayers and hopes for peace and delivered class reflections on the theme.
6Ds Class Assembly: A Peaceful World 6Ds class assembly continued the theme of peace, sharing their own poems about a world free from conflict.
Harvest mass- we celebrated harvest mass at the church and shared our harvest loaves, kindly donated by Joes Bakery, amongst the children as we reflected on the gifts of creation

Our Year 4 children are trying to raise enough money for a CAFOD world gift to teach a class to read in a country where children don't have easy access to education

October at St. Bon's: A Month of Prayer, Service, and Community

October was a busy month filled with faith-based activities at St. Bon's. Our year groups focused their prayer areas on honoring Mary, with Year 4's Rosary group meeting weekly to pray a decade of the Rosary.

Our class assemblies highlighted the importance of loving our neighbours, supporting our gospel theme. 3H explored the significance of friendship, while 6WA used the parable of the Good Samaritan to emphasise the importance of caring for others.

The Harvest Appeal was a success, with children dressing in bright colors and contributing to the CAFOD World Gifts Appeal raising £348.57. 5B and 6WA also organised a food collection for the church food pantry as part of their Faith Awards.

We celebrated Harvest Mass in church, sharing two harvest loaves from Joe's Bakery as a reminder to be thankful for our blessings. Inspired by the spirit of giving, Jack from 3H initiated a project to support the Julian Trust homeless shelter this Christmas, and classes are now brainstorming ways to contribute.
