Dear Parents/Carers
Well done to our year 11 students who have completed the first week of their mock examinations. Their conduct has been excellent and I wish them all well with these important assessments.
On Thursday many year 10 students had the opportunity to visit Birmingham City University and Aston University and experience some aspects of University life. I hope that this was a valuable experience for them all and is part of our commitment to our students to provide them with these kinds of experiences to inform them of their future steps. Well done to all the students who conducted themselves superbly.
This week we were informed by West Midlands Police about some shops in the area selling vapes to children. Some of these vapes are disguised to look like everyday objects. I would ask you as parents to be extra vigilant regarding this and it is important to be aware that we will suspend any students who choose to vape in school.
Next Friday is the feast day of St Edmund Campion and we will be celebrating the day with Mass in school as well as some activities around what St Edmund Campion means to our school community. We will be finishing early on this day and pupils will be dismissed from 12.30pm. There will be an extended break in the morning.
Compassionate God,
as your outstretched hands held a crucified world,
so let our hands convey the touch of love.
As you embraced our vulnerability
so cradle our hopes and fears.
Reach out to our frailty,
release our pain and in your tenderness,
bring health to our brokenness
that, in our weakness, we may find strength
and, in our poverty, the unfurled riches of your resurrection.
Amen
Kind Regards
Mr A. Grant
