On Thursday, Year 5 went to the Gravesend Central Mosque to learn more about Islam and the way Muslims celebrate their faith. Upon arrival, the children were asked to take their shoes off in line with Muslim practices and then the Iman (priest) invited us into the prayer room to tell us about his faith. We were then fortunate to witness the call to prayer and the way in which Muslims pray. After this, we were shown around the Mosque, including the location where Muslims perform the ritual washing act of Wudhu. We were all made to feel very welcome and left with a greater knowledge about the Muslim faith.

This term, Year 3 are studying the Greeks. To immerse them into the topic, on Friday they held a Greek Day. The children had so much fun taking part in Greek Olympics, trying Greek food (some found a new love for olives and figs!). They made Greek vases, listened to Greek folk music and learnt how to do some Greek dancing.

A lovely sunny day in Norfolk for our Year 6 School Journey group. Today, the pupils have been busy taking part in pirate activities and had a trip to Cromer. The children have tackled the high ropes, the zipwire and walked the plank! They visited the Cromer lifeboat museum and saw Cromer 's lifeboat at the end of the pier. Next they stopped for a refreshing ice cream. To complete the ‘marine-themed day’ the group have tucked into fish and chips followed by play time and a trip to the local swimming pool for their evening activity. 🏊‍♂️🌊🏴‍☠️🛟🍦🐟🍟 A very busy day!

A gentle reminder that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. At Aletheia, we have trained mental health ambassadors across our schools. We also have access to a 24/7 free and confidential counselling helpline to support our staff whenever needed. Our collective and individual well-being is a high priority as a Trust.

Services and events at St Botolphs Church Northfleet this coming Easter.

We are so incredibly proud of the 11 pupils who affirmed their faith and their baptism, through their Confirmation service this morning. The service was held at St Botolphs Church Northfleet, led by Bishop Simon. During the service, there were hymns, readings and testimonies. Some candidates were baptised and then Bishop Simon anointed each candidate in turn with Oil of Chrism. He lay his hands on their heads (a gesture of inviting the Holy Spirit upon each of them) to confirm them. The children then took their first Holy Communion and were presented with a candle, certificate and a copy of the New Testament.
It was a joy to witness these pupils commit their lives to following Jesus Christ. 🤍🕯️✝️

We were so excited to welcome the Living Streets team and STRIDER to St Botolph’s this afternoon! 🧡
We celebrated our whole school successes in a special assembly, and also recognised the hard work of our WOW ambassadors and the class who have engaged the most in the programme this month (Cherry class).
We then met Strider and also had the chance for a photo opportunity on the playground after school!
Well done to everyone for travelling to school in an active way, keep up the great work!🚶‍♂️🚴🏾‍♂️🛼🦽🛹🏃🏼‍♀️
