✨ Year 7 Retreat: Looking back, walking forwards ✝️

This time last week our fabulous year 7 spent the day on retreat reflecting on their first year here at SFX and looking forward to what next year may bring.

Whilst exploring Easby Abbey and St Agatha’s church students explored the theme “Looking back, walking forward”, reflecting how things can change over time, including ourselves.

Through games, activities, discussion, prayer and reflection, students considered what has changed in themselves this year and what further changes we wish to see in ourselves and each other as we grow together.

The day concluded with a wonderful Eucharist led by Rev Simon and then the obligatory visit for ice cream!

We are incredibly proud of all our Year 7 students for the enthusiasm, openness and maturity they showed throughout the retreat and their first year at SFX. They represented the school brilliantly and fully embraced every part of the experience. ✨

⭐Celebrating Year 7 ⭐

Today year 7 came together for the final time as year group, we can't believe how fast the year has gone!

Well done to 7 Rievaulx who collected not only the highest attending form of the fortnight, but also the highest attending form year to date - Mrs Coxon is very proud of her form!

Mrs Dunkley awarded Fiona the head of year award whilst Betsy was awarded the compassion award, Cate the service award, George the courage award and Willow the stewardship award.

What a fantastic year you have had year 7, well done!
