Opening PrayerGod of all life and longingAs we gather for the beginning of a new school yearWe give thanks for this day and everything that has brought us here.We ask your blessing on our new students and members of staff,May they feel welcomed and invited to share their gifts and talents with us.We ask your blessing on all who are returningMay they feel renewed and ready for what this year will bring.Share with our whole school community the Holy Spirit that breathes your life into usAnd leaves us open to the ways of your wisdom so that we may become the people you want us to be.May Jesus your Son be the teacher who guides our searching and the bread that nourishes our hunger.We make this prayer in his name.

Whole School AttainmentChildren are working at or above the

expected levels in all classes apart from Year 1 who have had their teacher off

sick for most of the year.

Year 4 children have also been affected by staffing – especially

with writing.

All classes which have had a stable teacher this year are

working at the expected level or better.
