Thank you to all who came to St Joseph’s and St Gabriel’s I am sure you will have enjoyed the mass as much as we did.
The reading was fantastic, the children read with such clarity and presence, especially for Year 3 it was an incredible achievement.
Also thank you to all parents who brought the children in with their ‘numbers day’ outfits, also a donation to raise awareness of charities.
The children took part in a problem solving, code cracking activity using roman numerals. It is fair to say some children showed incredible code breaking talent.
Please see the homework for this week below…
