13 A.R.C Catholic Workers Farm

On the 12th of December  a group of year 13 pupils were escorted to ‘The Catholic Worker Farm’ to donate items that they have been collecting as a year group weekly since September. I would like to commend them on their efforts. They have supported the cause, which offers accommodation for 22 destitute women whom without the farm, would be on the street with their children. It allowed the pupils to recognise the plight of others and to gain a better understanding of how truly privileged they are. By supporting the Catholic Worker Farm, they truly put the Catholic teachings into action. ‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,  I needed clothes and you clothed me’ Mt 25:35-36.

12 A.R.C Environment day

A huge congratulations to the year 12 A.R.C Environment group, who organised and ran an Environment day for KS3 classes. Also a huge thank you for all of the KS3 classes involved, the effort put in by all was brilliant to witness.

Today year 8 helped cleared an area so that in future we can grow plants. A group of year 8 also did water sampling to become more aware of the animals present in our school.

Year 9 selflessly  picked up litter and went around the entire school collecting recycling.

Year 7 made bird feeders to help preserve natural wild life in our local community.

Today all the pupils put their faith into action by being stewards of the earth.  “The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.” Gen 2:15

Berlin History Trip

The Key Stage 4 History Trip went to Berlin this year with 50 students where we visited sites that covered the rise of the Nazis, the Holocaust, and the Cold War. In particular Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp and the Berlin Wall were very memorable for how they impacted on the lives of so many people.
