Corpus Christi We’ve had an exciting and busy start to the academic year at Corpus Christi, filled with learning, creativity, and community spirit! Our Year 6 pupils kicked off the term with an unforgettable residential trip to Kilve. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to build independence, teamwork, and confidence while enjoying outdoor activities. During October we continued our commitment to charitable causes close to our hearts. Our Chaplaincy team members helped to organise a cake sale and we raised over £100 for Weston Hospice through our “Blue for You.’ This term the children also donated generously to Weston Foodbank. Zoe and Kirsty from the Hospice visited us for a special assembly, helping children understand the incredible work they do. This term, we’ve offered a wide range of after-school clubs and special sessions to enrich our pupils’ experiences. This has included School Sports Teaching Association who have been providing multi skills sessions after school each week and opportunities for children to take part in local football tournaments. As well as these, children have been spending time in Drama, Choir, Dance or Cooking club. Making mince pies has been a popular treat! As part of ‘Young Poet’s,’ week, KS2 took part in an online poetry workshop with two professionals who shared tips and techniques to help them spark ideas, experiment with language and shape their writing into poetic form! As part of the workshop, the children gave ideas for a country wide poem built by all the children. One of our Year 6 children’s ideas was even mentioned during the workshop. As we approach the festive season, the whole school is busy preparing for our Christmas Service, featuring children from EYFS to Year 6. Recently, we also joined St Paul’s Church for a creative workshop. The children decorated stars and these beautiful creations will be displayed throughout Advent and Christmas.
