I was looking forward to being there and was fascinated to compare what I know and experience of the Church of England decision making process with what happened in Rome.” He added: “I was intrigued to hear whether we can all understand ourselves as we related one to another and to each one of us, as members of the human family.” Paris attacks: Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby admits doubting God, warns against military action The Rt Revd Tim Thornton, Bishop of Truro meets Pope Francis watched by the Revd Tim McQuiban, the Methodist fraternal delegate and a Methodist Minister in Rome PHOTO CREDIT: All image rights and copyrights reserved to the Photographic Service of L’Osservatore Romano The Rt Revd Tim Thornton, Bishop of Truro, says it is clear there are “major differences in the room” at the Roman Catholic Synod on the Family in Rome where he recently represented the Anglican church.

  • Download SMART Newsletter Issue 2 – 2017/18
    Thank you to all staff for our extremely successful first full year of operation as South East Cornwall Multi Academy Regional Trust. With literally hundreds of success stories from across our six schools having appeared in newsletters, websites, tweets and posts throughout the year it is hard to single out any for particular mention. With this in mind, I have asked our six headteachers for particular examples which illustrate the collaboration between schools which has been at the heart of SMART all year and promises to be our major strength in the future. Here are some of our highlights. SMART combined events Student Council suggestion takes us to the Houses of Parliament One of the children from Trewidland in the MAT Student Council suggested that now we are a MAT we could go on trips together. Two months later Children from SMART’s three primary schools visited London for an action packed trip, that saw them visit museums, the theatre, the London Eye, the Houses of Parliament and much more. They were welcomed to the Houses of Parliament by Sheryll Murray, MP for South East Cornwall. Showing London has appeal across all of the schools and year groups Psychology A level groups in Saltash and Liskeard also teamed up for a trip to London, visiting those places I’m pleased that primary schools missed out on, including the Freud Museum and the ‘Jack the Ripper Tour’ Liskeard School & Community College and Dobwalls Community Primary School combine forces for knitting clubs Knitting clubs at both Liskeard School and Dobwalls Primary have joined forces to develop links with the community and take part in the annual yarn bombing of Liskeard and the surrounding area.
