Just a reminder that our Year 11 parents` evening takes place today, Thursday 23rd October 3:30pm-6:45pm. Appointments are available to book via school cloud.
Theme of the week: Don’t Give Up. This week’s Gospel reminds us of the power of persistence. Jesus shares the story of a widow who never gave up asking a judge for justice and eventually, he listened. In the same way, we are called to keep praying, keep trusting, and keep believing, even when things feel hard or our prayers seem unanswered. Faith grows through perseverance. #reflection
