If there are any problems with the log in details for Teams or you need support with the activities, please do let me know by sending an email via our communication address Year5l@ourladyoffatimatrust.essex.sch.uk.

During half term Lent begins with Ashe Wednesday on 17^th February. Our Youth Mission Teams have been busy preparing our fundraising and awareness campaign. Do follow this link to find out more. Or go to our website page Believe Belong Become to find out more and get some resources and ideas to help. Please remind children about Lent being a time we can use to do something extra good - good deeds - to show that we are preparing for Easter (e.g. they can write and decorate their own prayers, help you or their siblings with different tasks, etc.).

Today is class assembly day I will be sending out the link for this at 11am. Please remember to join with your cameras and mics of and other parents maybe able to see your email.

Enjoy a well-deserved Half Term Break!

Kind regards,

 

Miss Gifford
