If you have a child who is in year three or year four but not in our school then we are currently doubling those two year groups from one class to two classes now is the time to ask St Anne’s school if a place can be found for your child. If you know of Catholic families with children of this age group where they attend a community school but would prefer their child to be in a Catholic school, will you please advise them to call in at our school and apply for a place for their child.

Candle at the Shrine of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour. The list for 2016 is on the notice board in the narthex. If you wish to nominate a week for someone or an intention please mark it on the list for the week you desire. The donation is £5-00 which should be given to Fr. Glover. The candle will burn for the week as a silent prayer for your intentions.

St. Anne’s Book of Remembrance. At the Noon Mass on the first Saturday of each month I shall place “The Book of Remembrance” on the altar and the Mass will be offered for the souls of all those whose names are contained in the book. If you wish the name/s of members of your family recording in the book please complete one of the slips that are available in the Narthex and return it to Fr. Glover with your donation. This will mean that your loved ones will be remembered at Mass each month, in addition to the masses you would normally ask to be offered on their anniversary or in memory of their birthday.

Entered in the book of remembrance under number:Going into hospital? Don’t forget to inform Fr. Glover on 740 2448 who will advise the Catholic Chaplain or call the chaplain Fr. Matus on 834 4104.

Places in our school. It is essential that any catholic parent who wishes their child to have a place at our school registers them as soon as possible. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT UNTIL YOUR CHILD IS READY TO GO TO SCHOOL as you may find a place isn’t available. If you haven’t registered your child even if a place is available your child’s name and offer of a place will not have been passed to the local education authority by the school and subsequently a place at a non catholic school may well be offered.

Prayer Group Monday 7.30pm until 8.30pm Divine Mercy Prayer Group meets in church every third Sunday of the month 3.00pm until 4.00pm.

The Candle at the Shrine of Our Lady burns as a silent prayer for the Gallagher family.
