    RAMADAN 2025 - Y5/Y6 - if your child is FASTING, you MUST inform us.

    27 February 2025 (by admin)

    It is essential, if your child is 'fasting', to inform school. Information has already been sent out accordingly to Y5 and Y6 parents. A Y5/Y6 child intending to 'fast' CAN ONLY DO SO if they have parent permission. Thank you parents.

    Y5 and Y6 parents have already received correspondence about this. Please make sure you fill in the relevant information accordingly.

    It is a special period of time when some of our older KS2 children may wish to fast - an encouragement of spiritual reflection, piety and mindfulness on their journey of faith.

    During the Holy Month of Ramadan, it is also important that parents understand the school’s responsibilities to those children who may wish to consider fasting, so please make sure you INFORM THE SCHOOL - fill in the relevant information that has been sent to you. School needs to know if your child is 'fasting' - parent permission is REQUIRED & ESSENTIAL.

    Thank you parents, and behalf of the Governing Body & Staff of St. Bernard's Catholic Primary School, we hope you have a most faith-filled and spiritual Holy Month of Ramadan.
