St Philomena's Enrichment Programme

A special mention has to made of the wonderful after school programme that a number of pupils from Forms III to VI have taken part in Team Thoughtfulness Thursday have been on an incredible journey over the past 12 weeks; learning about kindness, empathy, emotions and feelings.

As part of the programme the children delivered a whole school assembly to share their learning as part of Children's Mental Health Week in February. They were also honoured to meet 'Baloo', a retired Police service dog who was injured in the line of duty and has shown great resilience in re-training as a therapy dog. Supported by Frinton Rotary Club, the pupils were involved in an Act of Kindness project, aimed at supporting their learning about the importance of being kind to themselves and to others. They created Easter cards and delivered them to the elder members of the local community.

Thank you to Frinton Rotary Club for their continued support of St Philomena's. We really do appreciate it.
