MULTI FAITH CELEBRATION WEEK

Some of our Year 6 Ambassadors, Alan, Aiza, Saphi and Preeya led assemblies talking to their friends about their own families’ faith. In this way, we have given each child a chance to shine and be the expert of their Faith. We believe that through sharing knowledge and understanding of one another’s religion and spirituality children are supported to grow up with a positive and welcoming outlook to all.

“It is a time where I can learn lots about other religions which helps me understand the beliefs of people at my school. I also really enjoyed researching more about my own religion.” Aiza
Parents and friends were them invited to come and talk to the whole school about their faith and in this way, we have learnt about Islam, Hinduism, Catholicism, Judaism and Sikhism.
MICHAELMAS TEATIME CONCERT On Thursday 17 November our Junior School musicians treated us to a wonderful concert full of variety and interest with vocal solos and instrumental pieces on Piano, Violin, Cello, Flute, Saxophone and Harp. Our new Guitar tutor, Mr Adam Coney, performed alongside
Guitarists Sullivan and Samuel before the Orchestra took the stage to perform an arrangement of Batman. Well done to all our pupils and a big thank you to our brilliant tutors who work so hard with our pupils – they certainly did you proud. Finally, a very big thank you too to the parents who provide such valuable encouragement and support - seeing you all in the audience cheering our pupils on was fantastic.
