The Head Writes

I am delighted to be sending you this newsletter, which outlines and highlights the many and varied achievements and activities of our school community during the last term. I believe it provides a fascinating snapshot of life at St Benedict's; demonstrating the excellent efforts of our pupils and staff in ensuring enjoyment of the curriculum and the many extra - curricular opportunities offered in school.

As always, this term has marked the beginning of final preparation for external exams for those in our exam classes. These pupils and staff have been busy with coursework completion and exam practice and the school has been helping by providing a wide range of extra lessons and support. our year 9 pupils have been involved in making important decisions regarding their option choices for next year, helped by staff and their parents following a very well-attended options evening.

Pupils in years 10 and 13 have received result of modules recently and i would like to congratulate those who have done so well in those modules.

While i cannot single out any of the wide variety of activities within this letter, so impressive and varied are they, i take particular pride in the active role many of our pupils are taking in driving forward our many fundraising activities, including Cafod fundraising and the determined development of the fairtrade agenda.

we have been preparing for holy week and easter with lenten reconciliation services, a whole school mass and a variety of voluntary services at breaks and lunchtimes in the school chapel. I would like to thank our local clergy for their help and support of our school. We continue to appreciate the support of parents and other partners in our community without whom none of the impressive range of activities here would be possible. i offer you all my sincere thanks and best wishes for a very happy Easter.
