Hey, Macarena…
It is finally here… we look forward to seeing you all doing it in person when we are able to have a school disco!
Our Lady & St Wulstan Children’s Liturgy – please join us on-line!
The Children’s Liturgy at our Church normally takes place alongside Mass on Sunday mornings but of course this has not been happening in recent weeks due to the pandemic. Our Church is now proposing to hold the Children’s Liturgy on-line using Zoom. The Liturgy is a time of worship and fun for children of primary school age and usually involves a bible reading, songs, prayers and handicraft activities. The first on-line Liturgy will take place on Sunday 14th June at 10.15 – 10.45.
All children will be most welcome to attend even if you do not attend Church. If you would like your child to take part please e mail Father Arul (presbytery@stwulstan-southam.co.uk) as soon as possible and further details including log in instructions will be sent to you

Helplines and resources to support parents and children
Dear Children and Parents,
As a school we sympathise with you during this uncertain and challenging time. The unknown and constant changes can cause anxiety to rise and mental health to decline. We have received some resources to support you all during this period. Below are links to some visual resources to help young children, or children with SEND, to prepare for the return to school, and to reflect on their lockdown experience.
There is a flier below with contact details for any children to call regarding their mental health. It is a 24 hour 7 days a week telephone advice helpline run by qualified mental health clinicians to be there for you to contact when you need.
There is a Council helpline for any parents and carers who have any concerns or queries. You can contact the Parental helpline on 01926 412021, from 9am to 5pm, or check the Council’s website for further information.
The parent and carer webpage can be found by clicking here
Take care of yourselves,
St. Mary’s Team

Photo diary – Easter
Please see below for our Easter photo diary. Week five (back to school) will be posted soon. For week six, we are trying something different…. please see the seperate post.
Photo diary – week six
For week six we are going to try something a bit different! Please join in by sending a clip of your child (or yourself if you are a member of staff or governor) dancing or singing to the Macarena, ideally a clip of them/you doing it four times so it goes the full circle! Don’t send films of the whole song! If sending clips of more than one person by email please send each clip in a different email. If sending by email, could also send another email with no attachments saying how many emails/clips you’ve sent we can check they have all been received.
Please contact your class rep for other options for sending through your files. We have a drop box account set up which is very simple to use. Cut off time is end of day on Friday 1st May.
Have fun … we’ll post the collective work product as soon as we can!
