St Thomas More Catholic Primary School



St. Thomas More School are still seeking some volunteers, amongst our catechists or parishioners, to help run some sessions to Year 4, ahead of their First Holy Communion Preparation.  These sessions would be run every few weeks, after school, from 3:30pm until 4:30pm.

 

The idea behind them is to extend the children's learning and knowledge (from what they learn in the school curriculum) about the blessed Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Sacrament of the Eucharist. Please contact St. Thomas More school office, for more information, or if you think you could assist.

 

We look forward to seeing our previous students, at the Year 7 St. Leonard's Welcome Mass. This will take place on Thursday 23rd October at 6pm in St. Joseph's Church. We hope our children and families can join us at this, always lovely, celebration. 

Finally, the friends of St. Thomas More are hosting a candy floss and toffee apple making session and a Halloween Disco on Tuesday 21st and Thursday 23rd October. We're so lucky to have the wonderful support of these families, on the PTA, who can help organise and run these exciting activities. We always need the additional support and implore anyone, who can give up a little bit of time to support our school, to get in contact with our PTA chair or the school office.
