St Vincent's Year Three and Four: Monday 18th May

Welcome to our blog

Homework was sent home last week and the children have spellings to learn and a comprehension to complete as usual. Please make sure that it is sent in on Thursday so it can be marked. There are my maths exercises to complete before the end of the half term. Thank you.

Sacraments of Holy Communion and Confirmation

The Year Four have a busy week ahead of them.

Monday

Walk to church at 1.00 pm and we will be back before home time. Thank you to all the parents who have said that they will walk up to church on Monday afternoon. See you at 1.00pm.

Thursday

Service starts at 6.30pm. The children will need to be in church before then at 6.00pm.

Friday

Photographs and Communion party.
The children will be having their photographs take in school by the school photographer. The children should bring in a contribution of food such as cakes, biscuits, soft drinks etc. No fizzy drinks please. After the party the children will be allowed to change out of their clothes so please provide a coat hanger! The children may change into their own clothes afterwards. They can bring in board games to play with too.

In RE this week we will be finishing off the topic of ENERGY. The children will be thinking about their energy and the energy of special people and the energy of the disciples when they were given the gift of the Holy Spirit. We will also be thinking about the sacrament of confirmation that the Year Four will be making on Thursday too.
