A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful Faith Ambassadors for the inspiring way they have led this year’s SVP Lent campaign, Heart to Heart. 💜 Through leading Key Stage assemblies and delivering beautiful Celebrations of the Word in classrooms, they have helped guide and support our whole school community this Lent. Inspired by the example of St Pier Giorgio Frassati, they have encouraged us all to “lift others to the heights”, reminding us to notice those who may feel lonely

Lat week, we were blessed to come together for a truly beautiful KS2 Lenten liturgy. Through thoughtful scripture readings, prayers and reflections, our Faith Ambassadors and representatives from each KS2 class led us in remembering what is truly important during Lent. We were reminded that, while we reflect on Jesus’ death on the cross with sadness, the cross is not the end. We give thanks for His great sacrifice and look forward with hope and joy to the promise of Easter.

Here are the dates and times for Holy Week in the Saint John Henry Newman Parish:

Last Thursday was a truly beautiful occasion as children from across the parish received the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the first time. We are incredibly proud of the children of Holy Trinity who received the Sacrament; the joy and pride on their faces was wonderful to see. We know how hard the children have worked to prepare for this, and we hope they continue to cherish and make use of the privilege of this precious sacrament throughout their lives.

We were given a fascinating tour by our knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides, who helped us learn more about the history and significance of the cathedral. The children were especially interested to hear about St Chad, and it was a very special moment to be able to sit close to his holy relics. During the visit, we also learned about Archbishop Bernard and studied his coat of arms, discovering mor

Yesterday’s Mass at St Joseph’s, Wolverhampton, with Bishop Timothy, as well as Fr Craig, Fr Frank, Fr Paulinus and Deacon Max, was truly beautiful. It was wonderful to see so many of our Holy Trinity children and their families there to reflect on the gospel in connection with the LOUDfence event hosted in the parish this weekend. The gospel message invited us to notice the vulnerability in others, to stand in solidarity with those around us, and to offer love, support and h
