Well done to all the children who received their certificate in assembly on Monday.

Please see below for details of our collective worship throughout the week.

Everyone is welcome to join us for the services led by KS2.

What amazing talent we have in Reception. The children's Mums, Dads and family members who joined us to see them showcase their talents on Thursday afternoon. Well done to all of the Reception class we are very proud of you!!

Below are some pictures and quotes from the children.

Franky - I loved doing the Greatest Showman because we got into a circle. It was really hard but we did it.

Robyn - Year Five did the bake off so we wanted to do something to raise money. I loved all the acts because it was nice to see. I thought everyone did them really well.

Leighton - I loved getting the tickets off all the Mummys and Daddys.

Jared - We have raised lots of money. The money will help people who need food and clothes.

Sammy- I loved making the tickets. The parents had to buy them for a £1.

The new school library was officially opened by a 99 year old parishoner and former pupil, Mercy Ballard, on Tuesday of this week. 

We would like to thank everyone from the school and Parish and PTA who have helped to create such a wonderful space for our children.

'There wasn't a favourite bit in the day it was all the best that it could be.' - Catherine

'CRASH BASH GET OUT OF THE WAY TUFTY CARPET IS HERE TO STAY'

Good attendance is very important to us here at St Ambrose Catholic Primary School and we are working hard to make sure that all children attend school as often as possible. Our school target is 96%. We understand that children cannot help being ill, but we would urge parents to do their best to ensure that medical and dental appointments are made for outside of school hours. Below is a table highlighting how time off affects a child's learning:
