They've been busy counting the days all year, and last week Kindergarten celebrated 100 days of school! Not only did the children dress up to look like their 100-year-old seles, but they spent the day engaging in a range of special 100-themed activities. By the way, the Kindergarten teachers dressed up too... the Kindergarten children haven't really aged them!

Be an OLOR Road Safety Star! You might be in a hurry, and parking around any school is tricky during drop off and pick up time, but double parking in the street or our car parks is unsafe. Help keep your children safe by parking legally.

The Feast Day of Sts Joachim and Anne, the parents of Mary (and grandparents of Jesus), is celebrated on 26 July. What better time, then, for us to celebrate Grandparents Day! It was wonderful to welcome so many grandparents, parents and friends as we gathered together yesterday for a Celebration of the Word of God, giving thanks for Sts Joachim and Anne and for the gift of grandparents in our lives. Our special guests then had the opportunity to visit our learning spaces. Thank you to all our grandparents, near and far, with us and with God, who touch the lives of our children in such a unique and special way.

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.
