COLLEGE PRAYER

SPECIALISM SUCCESS

Congratulations to Jade Slater, Meghan Iveson and Georgia Holmes (Y12 BTEC Business Students) who this week were paired up with their 'Business Mentors' as part of The Career Ready Programme (formally known as Career Academy UK). All three mentors work for Astra Zeneca and over the next 12 months they were share their expertise with the students and support them in their learning and career development. The students will have the chance to visit their work place and get involved in a range of activities linked to their own interest in business. Seven other Career Ready students are due to meet their mentors next week, some more from Astra Zeneca and others from The Royal Bank of Scotland, Peninsula and one from Business Doctors.

Prayer in memoriam of Blessed Oscar Romero who was killed on March 24 1980: Lord, we bring before you all who are imprisoned unjustly and all who are tortured. We think of those people who live in fear of injustice and repression. We pray that the minds of those who abuse others may be turned to what is good and honourable. May those of us who live in freedom not take our heritage for granted, but be of good influence in leading others to value one another as brothers and sisters. Amen. Prayer Focus: Christian Persecution During Maundy Thursday all students will have the opportunity to receive the sacrament of reconciliation during our service of forgiveness.

PARENTS AS PARTNERS:MAKE UP
