On 1^st December the sixth years gathered in the assembly hall for a day of reflection led by our special guest Gerry Keegan. Gerry shared aspects of his own faith journey and encouraged the sixth years to take time to reflect on their own lives and experience. Gerry sang songs and shared his story through examining the lyrics. There were plenty of games and interactive music general knowledge quizzes, correct answers were rewarded with enthusiastic cheers.

It was a powerful experience to be witnessed. Thank you everybody for your respectful participation and sense of fun throughout the day.

A special word of thanks to our personal Adele act! ? Hope you enjoyed the pizza lunch.

Thanks to our committee members who helped decorate the tree which looks great alongside the five new benches that the association purchased last month for the school.
