Christmas Newsletter 2018 Download NEWSLETTERChristmas SEPTEMBER - DECEMBER 2018 Sharples Park Bolton BL1 6PQ T: 01204 301 351 thornleigh.bolton.sch.uk ChristmasChristmas NEWSLETTER l thornleigh.bolton.sch.uk HEADTEACHER’S MESSAGE Dear Parents, Carers and Friends of Thornleigh Salesian College Welcome to the ‘bumper’ edition of our school newsletter. It gets bigger each term, which reflects the many activities, experiences and opportunities our children get as an integral part of their curriculum here at Thornleigh Salesian College. I think we have had the best start that we have ever had to any academic year and we are so proud of all of our children. Our revised rewards policy means that all students are rewarded for maintaining the very high standards of behaviour and learning here, but it also means that they can gain additional points for activities they are involved in both in and out of school. Many of our children are competing at a high standard at a particular sport or are performing in local theatres. Their talent amazes me and you will see plenty of evidence of this inside. The Tanzania project this Summer was absolutely fantastic and the group of sixth formers that I took were incredible. I want to thank all the staff who gave up 4 weeks of their Summer holiday to make this possible. This year’s Mission Week was the best yet on the theme of ‘Make God’s Love Visible’ and we certainly did that with the activities and workshops that we had throughout the week. I am very, very proud of this school and I refer you to the letter that I have enclosed with this newsletter. The next two terms are going to be very special for me and I will cherish every moment. Have a happy and holy Christmas and I will look forward to seeing you in the new year!

An action packed week that gives us a chance to really remember what it means to belong to Thornleigh Salesian College, and to celebrate what that means to be part of the wider church. Over the last few years Mission Week has gone from strength to strength with activities and speakers coming from all over the country. This year we invited our students to focus on the theme of “Making God’s Love Visible”. 4 Christmas NEWSLETTER l thornleigh.bolton.sch.uk Monday was our launch day and we were joined by mime artist Steve Murray who helped us explore our theme though mime. With all year groups getting the opportunity to witness Steve’s most incredible story and share in some of his experiences, we were able to start our journey though Mission Week knowing that God’s love is there, we just have to look a little harder sometimes. Along with Steve was our school choir and many other students who helped us move into mission week with a sense of prayer and reflection. Tuesday and Wednesday was the start of our small group activities, with Cafod joining us again this year to work with our Year 7 students, the message for Year 8 was that of Peace as they had a work shop with Pax Christi and Year 9 experienced the heart wrenching stories of Christians persecuted for their faith and were ably lead in writing messages by Aid to the Church in Need. Year 10 had another workshop by Steve Murray looking at more of the issues we face today and how they might manifest in our everyday life. Steve’s message was a powerful one that sent many of us away with emotions welling inside us. 5 Christmas NEWSLETTER l thornleigh.bolton.sch.uk 5 MAKE GOD’S Years 10 to 13 also had the privilege of meeting Figen Murray, whose son, Martyn Hett, died in the Manchester Arena bombing.

Thursday was our Mission Together day. This was a completely collapsed timetable where students did one hundred minute sessions to work with outside organisations or some of our own school staff. The theme of the day was MIselfie with each workshop being MIself, MIworld and MIgod. Our students embarked on a carousel of activities that challenged us physically, mentally and emotionally. Some of the guest speakers we had were: Soccer skills Urban Outreach - www.urbanoutreach.co.uk L’Arche - www.larche.org.uk Cenacolo UK – www.cenacolouk.org Medaille – www.medaille-trust.org.uk With workshops being delivered by school staff from: PE – Team games and water challenges Music and RE – The BIG sing Maths – Cafod’s trade game Creative studies – Selfie Portraits Science – Plastic and our world RE – Images of God IT – Online safety MFL/Geography – Be the change you want to see in the world History – WW1 – 100 years English – Mindfulness The day was action packed and our students had the best day.
