First of all, may we express sincere gratitude from the whole school family for the cards and gifts that were given to us all at the end of last term. We were overwhelmed with your kindness and lovely wishes. We hope that you had a beautiful holy Christmas with your loved ones and wish you all the best for this New Year.

With the continued support from the talented and dedicated team here at St Bede’s, we are wholeheartedly committed to being successful, and continuing to grow and develop wherever we can in 2020. The children are central to everything we strive for and their safety, happiness and of course education is paramount and our priority.

Christmas is coming! There are loved ones to see, gifts to give, baking to share. We prepare our homes for the celebration. Yet even more important than this outward preparation is the preparation of our heart.

The Advent season is a beautiful reminder to prepare our hearts as we prepare our homes — to celebrate the birth of our Saviour, Jesus! At the start of this week, we light the first of the four candles in the Advent wreath: the candle of Hope. https://thelife.com/advent-week-1-the-candle-of-hope

October is the month of the Rosary and a month when we remember Mary, the mother of Jesus. During this month the children will be saying the Rosary in their classes and I do ask that you can try to find time to say the Rosary and to pray to Mary as a family.

The past few weeks have been full of smiles, learning and new friendships. It is so wonderful to see so many happy faces around school.

In the words of the CES, ‘Time spent at school should not only equip us for life in the world but instil in us a love for knowledge and a desire to seek truth and wisdom. Education is a lifelong pursuit and it is the job of parents and teachers alike to plant and nurture seeds which will continue to grow and flourish over a lifetime. True education should also recognise the different gifts and talents of each pupil. Catholic education has at its heart the mission to help students uncover the essence of who they are and what it means to be in fellowship with others, seeking vocation and celebrating differences.’
