In Novitate Vitae
It is with great sadness that we write to let you know of the passing of Liz White.
Bell Burnell House's termly charity challenge took place which saw several brave staff participating in the ice bucket challenge.
Twenty two students from Years 8 and 9 joined 3 staff in a pilgrimage to Rome during half term as part of our Year of Jubilee celebrations.
Thirty two of our students were commissioned as Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist by Fr Eugene Campbell, at our mass to celebrate the Feast of St. Bede.

On Tuesday 29th April, students proudly represented St Bede’s at the South West Regional Schools’ Dance Competition.
We are delighted Bishop Bosco was able to join us for our annual Prize Giving as our guest speaker.
At the end of March, we took eighty students from eight schools across Bristol for a two-day visit to Trinity Hall, Cambridge. The trips are designed to encourage applications to prestigious universities from students that otherwise may not have considered that option for several reasons. The students were offered subject lectures and took part in workshops designed to hone critical thinking and improve interview performance.
The students were able to get a taste of life at Cambridge, with tours of the library, chapel and other facilities as well as the opportunity to visit other colleges. Staying in the halls gave a chance to relax with students from other schools, great preparation for the real thing at the end of Sixth Form.
We are grateful to all the staff at Trinity Hall, especially Xanthé Robertson, for making us so welcome and giving students such a valuable experience.
We were delighted last week to hear that our excellent outcomes have been recognised by SSAT (The Schools, Students and Teachers Network) in this year’s Educational Outcomes Awards.
