St Aloysius' College

Happy Easter from St Aloysius’! Our end-of-term newsletter is now live — and it’s packed with highlights from a vibrant and inspiring spring term. From World Book Day celebrations to sporting achievements, student awards and Sixth Form success stories, there’s so much to explore.

This term, our Yr 7 students have been exploring cityscapes in Art, drawing inspiration from Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser. Through the project, students have developed their understanding of colour theory. Their final pieces celebrate individuality and creativity.

Our Scholastic Book Fair is in full swing this week in the Main Hall - and it’s already proving a hit with students. With a wide range of fiction on offer, the fair is all about sparking that all-important reading for pleasure, helping students discover new stories, and authors.

In Yr 7 RE, students have been exploring the meaning of Passover and the Eucharist - discovering how these two traditions are connected across Old + New Testaments. Through creative & thoughtful reflection, students have learned about themes of freedom, sacrifice and remembrance.

Our Duke of Edinburgh Award students spent a recent Saturday preparing for their Bronze & Silver expeditions - and what a day it was. From navigation & map work to first aid training and outdoor cooking, our students embraced every challenge with focus, teamwork and resilience.

Our students took on a brilliant #WorldBookDay challenge as classrooms across the school were transformed into a literary scavenger hunt. Posters appeared around the building showing teachers hiding their faces behind books for the young detectives to uncover. Excitement galore😃
