Good afternoon all,
We have some great extra curricular stuff going on for students at Mercy Beaumont. We have the homework club and volleyball all being run free of charge during the week. It is important to support these extra classes so that we can keep them running. So parents if you could encourage your daughter to participate, it would be good for them and the school.
Date for your diary- We are having a guest speaker Fiona Forman on Tuesday 27th of February at 7pm. She will deliver a talk on ‘Supporting Anxious Teens’ – A guide for parents help to build resilience. The talk will be in the school library at 7pm.
