The confirmation pledge certificates will be given out at a later date.

 

Gift Aid Forms – Gift Aid forms were issued last week to some of the parents who very kindly contribute to our Planned Giving Scheme.  Gift Aid is a wonderful scheme which enables charities to claim back the tax which donors have paid on their donations from HMRC.  Broadbridge Parents and Friends can receive an extra 25p for every £1 donated and it doesn’t cost you or us anything!  We would ask if any outstanding forms could be returned to school as soon as possible so that we can process our next Gift Aid claim.

The challenge runs from 20-31st March. It’s free and we would love everyone to be involved. Children can walk, scoot or cycle to school on as many days as possible during the event.

 

Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is a great way to build physical activity in children’s daily routine which is important for their physical health and mental wellbeing.

 

Active school runs also help to reduce congestion and air pollution outside the school gate. A 2021 YouGov study showed nearly half of UK children worry about air pollution near their school. And that children thought active travel was the best away to bring down these pollution levels. Let’s get fit and participate!

Thank You

A huge thank you to Brian McCloskey and Gerry Cuningham, Eucharistic Ministers from our parish, who visited our school this morning to distribute ashes to pupils and staff.

Praying the Lenten Prayer below is a lovely way to prepare for Easter over the next six weeks.
