St Teresa’s Feast Day

As a school, all children celebrated St Teresa’s feast day on 1 October 2019 with collective worship in school assemblies.  Our year 5 and year 6 children went to Mass at St Joseph’s church. St Teresa’s “little way” was to do all the ordinary things with extraordinary love. Therese saw herself as a child of God. She liked to keep things simple and focused as a child does. Trust, especially trust in God, is a childlike virtue. She believed and taught us that life presents enough challenges and opportunities for grace. She teaches us that God is everywhere – in every situation and person – and in the ordinary, simple details of life.
