God our Father,
you sent Saint Patrick to preach your glory to
the people of Ireland.
By the help of his prayers,

Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your

who lives and reigns with you and the Holy
Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.

craziest hair possible. You will also be able to wear
your own clothes on this day.
We will be charging £1.00 a family. All money
collected will go towards our ‘Year of Mercy’
venture to raise £4,000 to run a health centre for
CAFOD.
This will be a fun and exciting day – please support
us!

Using the school's drop off zone
•The school’s drop off zone is only a 1-2 minute parking spot.
•Volunteers open the doors from 8:45am. Anyone using this service is expected to be polite, respectful and
courteous at all times.
•When your car pulls alongside the footpath, this is when children need to get out of the car.
•Children are to get out of the car on the pavement side.
•Make sure your child has their bag ready so that they can get out of the car quickly. Stopping to get bags out of
the boot, put coats on etc. slows the traffic down and adds to congestion.
•Parking in the drop off zone through the day is not permitted.
