Please come along to our Summer Fun Day on
Saturday 16th July 2022 from 12noon - 2pm.
Admission 50p for adults,
accompanied children free
Lots to do for all the family!
We’ve been refreshing the weather page like mad but unfortunately it looks likely that tomorrow will be very wet 🌧.
We don’t want all of the hard work from staff or all of your amazing donations to go to waste, so have made the difficult decision to POSTPONE tomorrow’s Fun Day 😔.
The new date is Saturday 16th July where we hope you will be able to join us (along with the sun) for a great day to celebrate school life getting back to some form of normality.
A huge thank you to everyone for your contributions and to all who offered to help - we hope you can join us on the 16th 🌞.
Thank you for your understanding.

this coming weekend!

...and that's a wrap! What a busy term it's been at Holy Family, with so much to celebrate. The staff and children have worked tirelessly and all fully deserve the next two weeks off - fingers crossed for some sunshine! 🌞
It's been a special week at school as we took part in our Holy Week celebrations. Year Four led us through Palm Sunday on Monday, followed by Year Five who reenacted the Last Supper on Tuesday. On Wednesday, we saw Year Six depict the Stations of the Cross and on Thursday Father Eugene came into school and celebrated Mass with us. We were all blown away by the children's responses to Father's questions in the homily, showing a depth of understanding beyond their years. The singing was fantastic, as were the readings and prayers led by Year Five.
It really has been such an amazing term and your support through all of it has been immense - thank you so much. I am very proud to be at a school with such great children, parents and staff and already can't wait for the summer term!
Enjoy your Easter break and stay safe!
