At St. Patrick’s, Jesus Christ is at the heart of everything we do. Guided by our mission statement, “Together through love and service we will come to know God and grow to be the individuals we were created to be,” we strive to enrich our curriculum in alignment with His teachings. Our goal is to deepen our children’s faith, foster a love of learning, and encourage service to others with compassion and kindness.
We aim to nurture both spiritual growth and academic excellence by offering a wide range of enrichment activities. Through engaging programs, we inspire intellectual curiosity and creativity, helping our students face life’s challenges with resilience and grace. In our caring Catholic community, every child is empowered to explore, learn, and thrive.
We pride ourselves on embedding enrichment opportunities across all areas of the curriculum. You can learn more about this here: St Patricks Overview 23 24

Take a look at our fantastic pinch pots! 👀
The children used their knowledge of clay techniques such as the ‘score and slip’ method to design their pinch pots. Can you identify some of the children’s decorations?
I’m sure I can see a smiley face 😊

In continuous provision this week the children have been constructing their own castles. Once they have constructed them they have been discussing the parts of the castle.
Did you know the blue around the castle is the moat?

This week, children from our Opera Club went to the Curtain Theatre in Rochdale to perform Carmen with three other schools. The children sang and acted wonderfully and the audience was blown away by their performance! We are very proud of all the children involved 🎉🤩
