This afternoon, as part of our Religious Education topic about vocation & commitment, Father Philip came to speak to Year 6 .
Before he arrived, we talked about what we would like to find out more about. Year 6 each came up with excellent questions, that really showed both their learning and their interest in this topic.
Father Philip answered all of these questions about his vocation and his life as a priest and many more and we learned so much more about how he has dedicated his life to God and helping others.
Many thanks to Father Philip for your visit. We really appreciate you giving up your time and the effort that you went to, answering all of our questions and we are very grateful for everything that you do for our school.
