Bishop Michael Campbell came to school to hand out commerative coins to each child celebrating the visit of Pope Benedict XVI in September. He shared with us his meeting the Pope and having lunch with him.
There was a wonderful collection of boxes and we delivered 100 boxes. We have received many thank you cards expessing delight at the gifts and that the child have thought about them and will continue to remember them in their prayers.
Harvest Assembly was held in the Cathedral and was well attended by parents. The children in year 6 then delivered parcels to the housebound of the parish and elderly residents in the local community.
Zoo Lab came to visit Clitherow class one afternoon to show them animals that live in the Rainforest. The children had the opportunity to hold some of the animals.
There were schools from all over the Diocese of Lancaster.
Four children from year 6 were very lucky to go to the Big Assembly to see Pope Benedict XVI. It was a marvellous occassion and I am sure they will remember the day for years to come.
