COLLEGE PRAYER SPECIALISM SUCCESS
The newly rebranded Career Ready (formally CAUK) Programme was officially launched this week with a visit from Steve Bridge, Regional Co-ordinator for NW England. He spoke to students who have applied on line to give them an insight into what to expect in what will be a far more structured programme spanning 18 months of study under the new brand. The Programme is open to all Business and Economics students and is based on a model that integrates employability and enterprise skills. Students can look forward to working with a business mentor, a paid internship and attending a range of masterclasses amongst many other fantastic opportunities. The first masterclass will take place after half term with a second in London on 10 December, when students are due to be formally inducted into The Career Ready Programme at a ceremony at The Dominion Theatre. We wish all our new Career Ready students the very best as they begin this exciting pathway that could help determine their future careers.
Prayer for Mission Sunday Loving Father, You so loved the world that you sent us your only Son, that we might believe in him and have eternal life. May we encounter Jesus Christ anew this day and live the Good News with joy. Through the power of your Holy Spirit, help us to “go out to the whole world and proclaim� our faith with confidence. Give us the courage to witness to the Joy of the Gospel by our words and actions. Help our Communities to become ever more welcoming and missionary, so that you may be known and loved by all people. Amen. FOCUSON: The Spread of the Gospel
NEW SAFEGUARDING WEBSITE FOR PARENTS - PARENT INFO
In schools we have lots of opportunities to learn about safeguarding, particularly the online aspect. Parents on the other hand need access to support too. It is not always easy to encourage parents to meetings about esafety, but it is crucial they understand the risks. The government has recently launched a brand new website to support parents. The website has being developed with ParentZone and CEOP, the police command responsible for child exploitation and online protection. Parent Info is a collection of articles, tips, expert advice and resources designed to help parents keep up with what their children are doing on-line. For example, the site currently includes information about staying safe on Minecraft, mental health, and building online resilience. You can find further information here: http://parentinfo.org/
