We were delighted to welcome members of the Halesowen Welcome Group to our very first Soup Kitchen!
 

We were honoured to serve the local community with hot soups, cakes & a hot cuppa this afternoon in school, led by our very own Caritas Ambassadors! 💕💕 

We thank all the parents for their generous donations of clothes, shoes & toys for the children. It was a huge success & we received many compliments from our visitors; thanking the children and staff for all their efforts in helping them to feel wanted & loved. 
 

Thank you to the parents who supported us for the afternoon, serving hot drinks and making our new friends feel really welcome! 💕💕

We look forward to doing it all again in the Autumn Term! Everyone is welcome so keep an eye on the calendar for our Winter Warming Soup Kitchen #schoolofsanctuary

OLSK SVP Matters

We are delighted to have been awarded 'Gold' in the School Games Mark for 2022/23!

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

We are extremely proud of our children for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.
 
As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.

Today, we honoured Mary, our Mother, and Patron of our wonderful School, in a whole school Mass & May Procession, led by Y4. It was wonderful to see all the children, who have previously received the Sacrament of Holy Communion, dressed in their beautiful clothes,  to honour Mary today.

Thank you to all of the children & staff in Y4, who led our Mass so beautifully; Mary, would be very proud of you. Thank you too, to the parents and parishioners who were able to join us for this wonderful celebration. 

We had an amazing time at St Chad’s Cathedral today and it was lovely to meet ArchBishop Bernard after the celebration and have a photo with him!!  💕💕 The Liturgy Leaders & the Presidents of our Mini Vinnies, were  representing the whole of our school community! We were very proud to process our OLSK banner during the offertory & present our cheque to Fr Hudson’s. 🙏💕🙏 Our children were great ambassadors for our school 😉 Well done everyone!
