Our school community came together to reverently take part in our Remembrance Day assembly and two minute silence. Pupils laid their wreaths on our memorial alter and as they paused at 11 o’clock, their thoughts turned to those brave, loved men and women, both fallen and continuing to serve, who have made possible our peace.
At the going down of the sun,
and in the morning,
We will remember them.
Lest We Forget
Pupils celebrated Diwali with learning all about the religious festival. They also learnt why it is important to people of the Hindu, Sikh and Jain religions around the world and for the children and people in our community.
Students took part in traditional dance, painting diva lamps, creating beautiful rangoli patterns and learnt the story of Rama and Sita.
Our prayer focus in November is for those who have died. As we move towards Remembrance day, we support the Royal British Legion. Our Head & Deputy Boys and Girls from Y6 are selling Poppy Appeal items each day leading up to Remembrance Sunday. On the 11th November we will again gather as a school community to lay our arts and crafts to remember those who have died in war. May they rest in peace.
This year, the Royal British Legion celebrates a centenary supporting service men and women and their families. How many years is a centenary? Tell your teacher to earn a house point!
Students celebrated October’s Black History Month with learning about the amazing accomplishments of Black Britons throughout our history and developing our knowledge of the world. Pupils researched, read and wrote about a variety of key figures in our history; enhancing our personal aspirations for the future.
Thursday 21st October – Wear non uniform to school today. Thanks to our School Council and Y6 prefects, we have decided to use the money we raise on Thursday for Non-Uniform day to give to the Chairy – Father Hudson’s. Well done for being inspired by Fr Pawel’s homily in our Harvest Mass.
BOOKS ARE BRILLIANT FESTIVAL – Thursday 22nd October, 2021.
Today, pupils had the opportunity to widen their knowledge and understanding of life in the theatre as well as finding out about the history of the pantomime. Performers from the Wolverhampton Grand Theatre visited St Teresa’s and gave pupils an informative dive into the life and workings of behind the scenes at the panto. Pupils enjoyed a fun workshop and were lucky to see a glimpse of the Cinderella panto that will be performed this Christmas!
We celebrated St Francis of Assisi’s Feast Day with a special liturgy led by Year 2. They taught us all about their class saint and our MAC saint- St Francis.
‘I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God forever’
Staff, parents and pupils donated a large range of food items to the school. The School Councillors then took all of the donations to the end of our school road (Malins Road) and set up a Pop Up Pantry for people in the community. People in the community were are able to take food items that they needed, and came together to share with others who weren’t physically able to get to the pantry.
