π Year 3 β What a fast-moving term we are having! π There is so much happening in Year 3 as we continue to learn, explore and grow! π¦ΈββοΈ We have been exploring what makes a hero in Religion and how we can be heroes through our everyday actions. Through our Socktober activities, we became heroes for children in Malawi, raising awareness and discovering how small acts of kindness can make a BIG difference! π§¦πβ€οΈ In Science, we became curious investigators, as we study gases, mixing baking soda and vinegar to produce carbon dioxide and watching as it inflated a balloon or bag! π We are also enjoying the wonderful opportunites to attend gala days, ππ while in Faith, we proudly led our Monday morning assembly for All Saintsβ Day and All Soulsβ Day, remembering those who inspire us through their faith, courage and love. π―οΈβ¨ What a wonderful term of curiosity, creativity, faith and discovery! Keep glowing and growing, Year 3! π±β #StPatricksGuildford #Year3 #HeroesInAction #Socktober #LearningThroughDiscovery #ScienceExplorers #CharlottesWeb #AncientGreece #FaithInAction #GlowingAndGrowing

Feast of the Triumph of the Cross βοΈβ¨ Today, we celebrate the Triumph of the Crossβa powerful reminder that what once represented defeat and suffering has been transformed into the ultimate symbol of hope, victory, and unconditional love.Through the Cross, darkness was overcome, and new life was given to the world. It reminds us that our own struggles and daily crosses can be transformed into sources of strength and grace when we unite them with Him.Let us look to the Cross today not as a sign of sorrow, but as a beacon of triumph and redemption. βWe adore You, O Christ, and we praise You, because by Your holy cross You have redeemed the world.β π
