Advent
Advent 2024

We have introduced our children to the guiding question for the rest of this term’s learning, ‘How do people celebrate special occasions?’. We have started our Advent adventure in learning early so that our children can deepen their knowledge and really understand how Christians around the world prepare for the birth of Jesus Christ. When the children left assembly this afternoon, walking back to their classes, they witnessed first-hand, the beauty of the illuminated nativity scenes displayed in our reading snugs throughout school. These cribs will be a focal point for all children throughout Advent as they learn more about what happened leading up to the birth of Jesus over 2000 years ago.
Please support your child at home in preparing for Christmas throughout Advent by taking time to discuss with them how people celebrate special occasions and time for prayer and reflection during this most special time in the liturgical year at our Catholic School.
