Catholic Life
At St John Fisher Catholic Primary School, we do really live out our Mission Statement ‘Growing through God, we Learn, Laugh and Love.’ We have a clear vision of God, people and life. We have gospel values at the centre of everything that we do. Christ truly is at the centre of all that we do in our school.
We actively participate in a variety of action groups to show our respect and care for one another. We extend our concern to the needy through our charitable service and prayer.
Mini Vinnies are very busy working with different charities like, ‘Mary’s Meals,’ Widnes food bank, Angel starfish charity, CAFOD.
·Collectively, as a community, we are working on achieving the ‘Live Simply’ award from CAFOD. Through recycling uniform, gardening club, class and family pledges to ‘Live Simply’ ensuring that we are all stewards for our common home.
Lent
During Lent we take part in The CAFOD Big Lent Walk we hold weekly fundraising - toast sale, Family Fast Day Cake Sale.
Prayer Bear Key Stage One
In key stage One we take turns to take home our Prayer Bear. We spend time to pray with our families and share our Prayer and Liturgy at home.
During Advent and Christmas, we also have a Traveling Nativity that travels around our family home.
Tomsk the Recycling Womble
Tomsk, the womble, is visiting each class to do some recycling, he keeps a diary and share his work in weekly newsletter.
"Positive, warm and caring relationships at every level are a key feature of the school. The whole school shares a common vision and their joy in their work is clearly evident in the manner in which individuals share their gifts with each other."
"Pupils embrace opportunities to meet their potential in all aspects of school life. They show a wholehearted readiness to celebrate their lived experiences. Equal opportunities are provided for all. There is a wealth of evidence to supports all of this."
"The extent to which the pupils contribute to and benefit from the Catholic life of the school is outstanding."
