The Jubilee Prayer

Father in heaven,
may the faith you have given us
in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,
and the flame of charity enkindled
in our hearts by the Holy Spirit,
reawaken in us the blessed hope
for the coming of your Kingdom.

May your grace transform us
into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.
May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos
in the sure expectation
of a new heaven and a new earth,
when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,
your glory will shine eternally.

May the grace of the Jubilee
reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope,
a yearning for the treasures of heaven.
May that same grace spread
the joy and peace of our Redeemer
throughout the earth.
To you our God, eternally blessed,
be glory and praise for ever.

Amen

Message from Mrs Laskey

Dear all

It was lovely to return to school yesterday to a warm welcome and many thanks for all your best wishes and kind words. 

During Celebration Assembly this morning the children reminded me of the the three things that Archbishop Bernard has asked us to remember during the Jubilee 2024 - Year of Hope. These being 1. Prayer 2. Social Action and 3. Fundraising. 

The fundraising element was demonstrated yesterday with the Valentine Bake Off. Thank you to all those wh baked and then bought the variety of cakes and biscuits. We raised £298 and this is to support school enrichment. Thank you also to those who organised and volunteered to support the successful event. 

I asked all the children during assembly to think about how they could be a pilgrim of hope. 

I wish you all a lovely half term break. 

Mrs Laskey 

Regular attendance at school means that your child will make the most of their education and improve their chances later on in life. At St Ambrose, good attendance is of high importance and we strive to have at least 96% attendance. Please help us with this target. If you need any support, then school is here to help so that your child can get the very best out of the education we provide. 

We will continue sending out regular communications about attendance so that you are aware if you child falls below our 96% target and we are working with Louise Howles, our Education Welfare Officer to support us with improvements.
