Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School

John Agard poetry recital at West Library Pupils attended a special event at the West Library. It was in celebration of Windrush Day, and the pupils were treated to recital performances from John Agard himself, who is a renowed Caribbean Poet and Author.

Wintershall actors visited Blessed Sacrament in costume to perform scenes from ‘The Life of Christ’ as 20-minute drama. They also shared their experiences of acting out the Gospels, highlighting links with Christian virtues. Children listened exceptionally well asking questions.

Knife Crime and Gang Youth Violence Workshop Marcel Campbell from Integrated Gangs Team Islington led a workshop with parents and pupils in St Martin class about gang youth violence. It was great to see so many parents attend the coffee morning, and the pupils were very engaged.

Caritas Ambassadors and Imagining Futures pupils attended Westminster Cathedral for the Caritas Ambassador’s festival on Friday. The pupils were present for the liturgy led by Cardinal Vincent Nichols and Bishop Paul McAleenan and met other Caritas Ambassadors!
