All Hallows Catholic College Newsletter Michaelmas Term PRAYER FOR THE SVP SOCIETY SPECIALISM SUCCESS

All Hallows Catholic is part of a group of schools who have successfully bid to the Department for Education for funding to support teaching and learning in languages. The consortium consists of 6 schools across the Midlands and the North West. We will lead on transition and primary / secondary collaboration. From September 2014 Languages are compulsory in key stage 2 (ACH)

Lord we pray for the Saint Vincent de Paul Society, the churches that sponsor them, all other charitable ministries, and the people they help. O Lord, multiply the supplies they distribute to the needy, give new strength to the workers, and bring in more volunteers who serve the poor with genuine love. Protect these ministries and teach us all by their example that helping the needy brings great joy. Saint Vincent, pray for us. Amen.

PARENTS AS PARTNERS The college is hosting a Target setting Parental Information Evening on Thursday 9 October from 7-8pm, and is open to all parents. All Hallows Catholic College will be hosting an Esafety awareness evening for parents only on Thursday 16th October at 6:00pm. This is being led by PC Jane Commins from Cheshire Police. The aim of the evening is to provide up to date Information and guidance to parents/carers that will assist with your understanding of the risks technology can bring to your child. All parents/carers of children in any year group are welcome.

ECO FACT If everyone in the UK with gas central heating installed a condensing boiler we would save £1.3 billion on our energy bills every year – enough energy to meet the needs of over 4 million homes for a year – and carbon dioxide emissions by 17.5 million tonnes

PROCEDURES FOR A MEDICAL APPOINTMENT DURING THE COLLEGE DAY Students must sign out at the Attendance Office before leaving College to attend a medical appointment. When they return to College the student must sign back in. This ensures registers will be accurate and we know the student is off site should we have a fire alarm. The Attendance Office is currently located along the Science corridor, but will shortly be moving to a new space along the RE corridor. We thank parents for making medical appointments, where possible, that do not take up a whole day of schooling. This often allows a student to have their legal registration mark for both a.m and p.m sessions and so their overall attendance does not fall.
