2 days until our first fundraiser of the year supporting @SRTRC_England Here’s a sneak peak of one of our games! ✨ ❤️ @Chaplaincy_KYT @RCBirmingham
This Friday (25th) we are supporting @SRTRC_England and their vital work in educating people against racism in the hope to one day eradicate it. Y9 pupils are giving assemblies this week ahead of our WEAR RED DAY in school ✨❤️ @Chaplaincy_KYT @RCBirmingham
We are so grateful for the Mission Team that have been with us in school this week! They have shown us endless kindness, authentic joy and above all, that the Father’s love is real and for us - we just need to be brave enough to accept it ✨ @RCBirmingham @Chaplaincy_KYT
Awareness of Black history goes beyond slavery struggles and civil rights movement of the 1950s. We are 'Reclaiming the Narrative' celebrating key moments of British Black History. #BlackHistoryMonth2024 #BHM2024 #ReclaimingNarratives
In the news today, Rishi Sunak says English schoolchildren are the best in the western world at reading (for pleasure?) With the academic year nearly done, do we agree? fullfact.org/live/2024/jun/…
Hi @AccReader / @RenLearnUK Any Myon recommendations for Refugee week? Our Unicef group want to incorporate this in their Refugee week assembly next week! TIA
We are so grateful to have been a part of the @RCBirmingham Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes! Our pupils have had an amazing week and we couldn’t be more proud of their willingness to serve and their constant joy ✨ @thekenelmyt @Chaplaincy_KYT @BhamDES
Mr Matthews and 8 Newman took the win for 1st Place in the Easter Interform...again! A combination of teacher monitoring, feedback and motivation ensures his class, reads, quizzes, then on to the next book asap; repeat! Well done 8Be @AccReader
Lot's happened last term, but not many chances to post, sadly. All you need to know is that PE teacher Mr Jones' group came first in the Easter Interform for Y7 and Mr Matthews, also a PE teacher got 1st Place for year 8 (again) - They are a competitive lot 🎉👏🏆📚
Term 3 - let's get at it! 75million words read since September. Think we can make it 100 million ? @AccReader
Well WBD was a blast! This year's theme was... 🥁Alice in Wonderland! Back by popular demand our wbd activities. The golden snitch hunt; Guess the Teacher; Token exchange and Ollivander's for the Top 50 AR readers. @WorldBookDayUK @AccReader
World Book Day is often perceived as an event primarily for younger students. However, last year, we reached out to Sharan Kaur, Librarian at @WisemanLib, to explore innovative ways of involving secondary students. Here's her top tips: bit.ly/3k0xf9t
We had the best time on our Y8 residential retreat to The Briars! Thanks so much for having us @NDCYS ✨
Mrs Buckle's group are the champion readers of Year 9! Keep up the good work : ) Nearly an all round KS3 win for all of the Teresa form groups.
Congrats to Mr Clarke's reading group! They won the Y7 interform reading challenge. They won over several factors: accuracy, points, engaged time and teamwork. For their prize they had a 'break the rules party' in the Library which included music, computer games and...DONUTS
