Notre Dame High School Sheffield

A huge thank you to all of our parents, staff and students for helping us through a successful week during the heatwave. We're so grateful for your support and flexibility!

We're pleased to let everyone know that from Monday, we'll be returning to normal, with all year groups back in school and wearing full uniform.

We hope you all have a safe and happy weekend – we're certainly ready for an ice cream! 🍦☀️

☀️ Our Summer Fair has been cancelled! ☀️

The sun has finally come to say hello, but unfortunately, it's a little too hot for us this week!

After careful consideration, we've made the difficult decision to cancel our Summer Fair which was supposed to take place tomorrow (Thursday 25th June). The safety and wellbeing of our children, families, staff and volunteers must come first, and the forecast temperatures make it too challenging to hold the event safely.

We're disappointed as we know everyone was looking forward to a fantastic afternoon together, but we hope you understand our decision.

Please watch this space, as we'll be looking at ways to organise a special event later in the year instead. We can't wait to celebrate together when the weather is a little kinder!

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. 🌞

🏃‍♂️☀️ Summer sport extra-curricular clubs have made a comeback!

More sport, more fun, and more opportunities for our students to get involved, compete, and represent the school. Whether they're looking to try something new, develop their skills, or be part of a team, there's something for everyone!

Our cub is out in the wild!🐾 It's hiding somewhere in the Botanical Gardens just waiting to be found!

Recently, Hallam Chaplains accompanied students from All Saints, St Bernard's and Notre Dame on a two-day Bronze Faith in Action retreat at Savio House in Macclesfield.

The retreat was filled with prayer, reflection, friendship and fun. Students enjoyed exploring the countryside, taking part in creative activities, leading prayer liturgies, sharing meals and building new friendships. They reflected on how the Faith in Action programme has strengthened their faith, confidence and sense of community.

A final visit to Lyme Park provided even more opportunities for laughter and memories before heading home.

We are incredibly proud of all the students taking part in the Bronze Faith in Action Award and thank everyone who helped make the retreat such a special experience. We look forward to seeing where their faith journey takes them next.

✨ Recently, we had the pleasure of welcoming former Notre Dame student Maria Goodman back to school to deliver an inspiring dance workshop for our students.

Maria has recently completed her third year at The Urdang Academy in London and is now auditioning for professional roles — an incredible achievement! 🌟

Our students had a fantastic experience learning the original choreography from the “Kick Line” number in Cabaret. They worked incredibly hard throughout the workshop and produced an excellent performance piece. 💃

Maria is a wonderful example of how hard work, passion, and dedication can turn dreams into reality, and she was truly an inspiration to everyone involved. ❤️
