This week's Gospel Reading of the Week is John 10:11-15. Mr Graves started this week's assembly with the reading and the children have continued to use it daily, in their class prayers and worship.

We have small number of places available in our Reception class for September 2024 and other year groups. Please contact the school office to arrange a visit so that you can have a look around our wonderful school and see what SS Osmund & Andrew's has to offer. 01204 333070
