Our school sports day will be held on Tuesday 17th June. Times to be confirmed when we return after half term.

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 Brocklesby

Thank You for Your Support – We're Almost There,

This week I am delighted to extend my sincere gratitude for your unwavering support in enhancing our school's attendance. Your commitment has been instrumental in our collective progress.

Thanks to your efforts, we have seen a significant improvement in attendance rates. We are now approaching national averages, a milestone that reflects the dedication and hard work of our entire school community.

Your continued support is crucial as we strive to maintain and build upon this progress. Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to succeed.

Thank you once again for your invaluable contribution.

Our Reception class today delighted us with a lively assembly that was brimming with energy and creativity. The children showcased their talents through a delightful mix of singing, dancing, and loud, clear voices, captivating the audience from start to finish.

From the opening notes to the final applause, the assembly was a testament to the hard work and enthusiasm of our young learners. Their performances were filled with joy and confidence, leaving a lasting impression on all who attended.

A heartfelt thank you to our Reception class for their dedication and to Miss Brewer and the staff for their support in making this event a resounding success.

VE Day Hamper

Thank you to everyone who bought tickets for the VE Hamper Raffle. We have raised £43 for PTA funds. The hamper was won by Henry in Year 2. Well done!

Can we please ask again that you do not obstruct residents driveways when dropping off and collecting your children from school. We have had a complaint from a local resident who was unable to collect their child from school in time as their driveway had been blocked. Please be mindful that people need access to their frontages at all times.

Thank you for your continued support.

If you are having difficulties booking your child onto the clubs please can you contact Sprint Active directly by calling or emailing on the below details:

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.
