This week's prayer:
Bernadette Soubirous was of a very poor family in Lourdes, a small village at the foothills of the Pyrenees in the south of France. It was on 11th of February in 1858, whilst she and her sisters went to collect brushwood for the house fire, that Bernadette saw the first of 18 visions of a lady. As time went on, it became clear that it was Our Lady who was appearing. During one of the visions, the Mother of Jesus told Bernadette to scrape some earth from the ground. A steady spring of water then flowed, and many of the thousands of people who now visit Lourdes each year bathe in that running water. 11th of February is the feastday of Our Lady of Lourdes , and it is appropriate that this day is also set aside each year as “The World Day of the Sick”.
Let us pray:
Father, we pray that we may live cheerfully and patiently and positively both in sickness and in health. We bring before you all who are sick and all who care for them... Bring healing of one kind or another to those we know who are ill, afraid or worried. We think of those who suffer from constant sickness or weakness and those who never get well. Father, be with them all, and be with us. Amen.

BBC News School Report
Our reporters have been very busy this week filming a story on climate change. The deadline is fast approaching and on the 11 March 2010 you will be able to see the news report our Year 8 pupils have been working on through our school website. This is a major project run by the BBC with schools across the country taking part in BBC News School Report. Next week our reporters will be quizzing Khalid Mahmood MP on a range of topics. I will keep you informed.
English GCSE Enhanced Results Analysis
Very soon Year 11 parents will be receiving a more detailed copy of the GCSE English results outlining precisely what grades were achieved for each section of the exam paper. We hope that this will be useful in helping Year 11 revise specific areas of the exam paper in more detail, in order to help raise their grades. Copies of this information will also be given to Year 11 pupils.
GCSE English Saturday Morning Revision
As an English team we want to do everything we can to ensure that Year 11 pupils get the success they deserve. Please see Mr Milligan or Mrs Westwood for further details of the Saturday morning revision sessions. Once again, this is a free opportunity to get that little bit of extra help that could make all the difference.
