St.Saviour’s Book Drive

The school together with the friend’s association, will be working on a School Wide Drive to replenish our free choice books throughout the school and we would be

very grateful for your support in this.

Please look at home for some good quality books that you and your child would be happy to donate to the school.

We are looking for fiction or non-fiction quality reads, in good condition.

These books will be chosen by the children each week to take home and will not

be banded along with our reading scheme books.

Atlases and dictionaries are welcome.

Not all donations will end up in your child’s current class but all books will receive a book plate with the donor’s name inside.

We will be collecting books in the week beginning Monday 15th November.

Please bring your books to school that week with clearly marked labels, with your child’s first and last name. Please either label the bag the books are in, or place a

post it on books so it is clear to see who has donated each book.

Thank you!

The cup winners are: ! RG for punctuality for 2 weeks running!

1O for attendance for 2 weeks running and RT—well done :)

Anti-Bullying week w/b 15th November 2010

At St. Saviours we will be marking this week with a friendship

week. This week will begin with an assembly led by Miss Wittich.

Following the assembly, all of the children will take a name out of a

hat; the name they pick out will be their friend for a day. They will

do special things for that friend on the day.

The week will be rounded off with a class assembly led by Miss

Spence and 2S.

On Monday 15th November we are asking everybody to come to

school dressed in blue (the colour of friendship). During the day we

will join hands to form a large friendship circle in the back play-

ground.

Margaret Wittich

PSHE Subject Leader

Charities 2010—2011

In a recent assembly the children chose the two charities that

they would like to support during the coming year. At home they

chose Sunshine Homes, which is a school and residential home for

blind children in Northwood.

They also chose Christian Aid. By choosing Christian Aid we will be

able to link our work to current events around the word as Chris-

tian Aid targets areas of immediate need for example the floods in

Pakistan.

Look out for more details of our future fundraising events.

ST SAVIOUR’S PARISH CHURCH, EALING

The 16th November is the 70th anniversary of the destruction by enemy action of St. Saviour‘s parish church, Ealing. St Saviour‘s was a large late Victorian church with a large parochial community. With St. Saviour‘s school and the Clergy House it formed a strong Christian enclave in The Grove. In due course it was decided not to rebuild the church and to unite the parish with Christ Church in the Broadway (from which the parish had originally carved). The titles of the churches were combined to become ―Christ the Saviour‖. The site of the church was given to the school to allow the building of the hall and the laying out of back playground. A cross inserted in the surface marks the site of the High Altar. Although it was a tragedy that such a fine and flourishing church was destroyed, its tradition continues in the present school and Church. On 16th November there will be a school assembly in the playground around the cross. In the evening the will be a com-memorative High Mass at 7.30pm in Christ the Saviour to give thanks for the inheritance of St Saviour‘s and to pray for peace.
