Meet the Alpacas!
Tue 09 Dec 2025So …..after all my strange dreams about alpacas …….look what happened today!!!! We’ve had a very special visit from two gorgeous alpacas! As a Christmas treat, they have travelled all the way to St Bernard’s for some furry fun. The children stroked them and fed them and asked lots of great questions about what kind of life they have. All children will now do a piece of writing about this and I can’t wait to read what everyone produces.

A great time with Great Athletes! This morning we welcomed Paralympic sprinter Michael Churm. We took part in a sponsored fitness session then had an inspirational assembly where he talked about how he has overcome challenges and competed at a range of national and world competitions. He taught us to “Always try your best!” Well done everyone for all of the interesting questions that you asked Michael and for your participation in our physical activities too!

St Bernard’s & St Cuthbert’s United As Pilgrims of Hope…..
Mon 06 Oct 2025Today saw the final stage of our part in the anchor’s journey as our fabulous Faith Team took it on to its next location at St Cuthbert’s RC Primary School. We enjoyed a special liturgy together and then a celebratory feast - all in matching jumpers. It was such a pleasure to be with more wonderful young people proving they are ambassadors of our faith.

School & Parish Anchored in Faith……
Sun 05 Oct 2025Another fantastic step in our Pilgrims of Hope journey today as our pupil leaders led mass for the whole parish in honour of the Jubilee Anchor and all that it represents. Parishioners, parents & carers then came in to school for tea, biscuits and a tour around all the wonderful artwork completed by all of our children. Thank you so much to all the children, staff, parents, carers and parishioners for joining us - another very proud day for the St Bernard’s family.
