Lenten Charity – CARITAS – Support for Ukraine
We are receiving updates from the charity Changing Lives Together, about the passage of donations, including our Postcards of Kindness, into Poland. Hopefully, they will be a reassurance of our support and prayers to the people being helped by the many charities at work, including CARITAS. 
Our music department were delighted to be able to perform at our Spring Concert last week. The audience were treated to a wonderful evening of excellent performances by our students. In response, our CARITAS collection amounted to a fantastic £343. Thank you very much to all who supported our students and this important charity. 
During our Sacred Space on Wednesday, we remembered all those whose lives have been lost because of the COVID pandemic. It is difficult to believe that it has now been two years since the first lockdown in England. It would be hard to imagine how much has changed in this time. We continue to work together to support each other and to give thanks for the medical research, hospital staff and carers, and for the many official and unofficial volunteers who have found ways of supporting their community. 
Whilst we hope that everyone is coping well, this is a difficult time for many, and we appreciate that there may be some families who are undergoing hardship because of changes in work or personal circumstances. So that we may support our St Nicholas family we have registered as a referral organisation for the Foodbank. If you would like to have this support, we are able to process an on-line referral and arrange an appointment for you to collect a five-day food package from an agreed centre. For those who are self-isolating, a delivery can be arranged instead, subject to volunteer capacity. 
This week students have been reminded of their responsibilities to fill up their water bottles at the appropriate times – not during lessons.
Given the seasonal rise in temperatures, we will be returning to our usual position of no coats being worn inside the building (corridors and / or classrooms) from Monday 28th March.
