StephHi all!

I’m Steph, I’m 18 years old, and I come from Nottingham! I live with my Mum and Dad and a very cute rabbit called Flopsey. I also have an older brother (Sam) who lives away from home in Liverpool. I’ve just left the Becket Sixth Form where I studied A levels in History, English literature and Music.

I adore music, both playing and listening to it! I play the flute and I hope to learn a little bit of guitar whilst I am here too. To listen to, I like any sort of music really, but I do love a bit of cheesy pop! My favourite artists include Jason Mraz, Michael Bublé, Daniel Merriweather and The Noisettes. My favourite TV programme is Hollyoakes and anything that makes me laugh! As for films, I love watching a good romantic comedy, my favourite probably being Love Actually. Also, quite a fan of Disney films, old and new ones, but my favourite one would definitely be Cinderella!

Can’t wait to meet you all this year!

Trinity Year 9

This has been a really jam packed weekend, and you all got straight in with everything. The team challenges on the first night were so much fun. Hello to mine and Liam’s small group, ‘4 boys 6 girls and a purple dinosaur’ You were such a laugh and all worked really hard, so well done to you. Your morning prayer was dead good and I also think that the asking prayers yoo wrote for mass were a really high standard, so well done to you!

Thanks for a very busy fun filled weekend! Good luck with everything!

Take care

St John Houghton Year 9

This has been a truly amazing week! I have loved every second of it and I hope you all enjoyed it just as much as I did! You were so friendly and easy to chat to.  A big shout out to my small ‘Bob’s your Uncle, Nigel’s your brother.’ You guys were amazing and every single one of you joined in with everything, so thanks for that! Our mascot for our small group was awesome, and well done for winning the horse race!!

Reconciliation was amazing! Every single groups presentation was so powerful, and I really really enjoyed it so well done to you guys. The walk as well was great and I loved being able to chat to you all.

So thanks for a really memorable week, I loved it all, so thank you!

Good luck for the future,

Take care,

Steph

This seemed to be a particularly jam packed weekend and we really seem to have squeezed a lot in! Hello to ‘Gary’ (said in that very weird voice that you used!) You guys were a right giggle and I loved getting to know you. I especially loved our TV advert for knowledge power…it was sooo funny and I loved all the songs in it! Meal times were always good fun because you were just so friendly and easy to talk to, so thanks for all the chats!

Hope to see you up again sometime!

Take care,

Steph

The second half of the week, and you guys sure had a tough act to follow, but you didn’t disappoint and I enjoyed the second half just as much as the first! A big shout out to my small group, you guys were so fun to be around and just had so much energy, so thanks! The artwork you made on Thursday was awesome and to be honest, I thought all the groups artwork were fab! I enjoyed the walk again, as it was such a gorgeous day!

Anyway, hope you have a lovely and restful half term!

Take care,

Steph

I really loved these couple of days that we spent together…they were awesome and you were just so polite and friendly, and I found it really easy to talk to you all! A big hello to my small group, you were such a laugh to have around! I thought it was great how well you shared in the board game, but most of all I loved our song to advertise how much we loved I-pods! The walk was really nice to and I loved having some time to get to chat to more of you!

Anyway, hope you have a great half term!

Take care,

I genuinely loved these couple of days that you were up here! You were so enthusiastic and just got involved in everything that we did! You were small in number, but that did not effect the amount of energy you guys had! My small group did amazing in every single task that you were set…the friend you built was awesome! Well done on saving our crisp ‘Chrissy’, your idea for that was fantastic, and the chant that went along side it was equally good, well done guys! Also, I thought mass was really special, you all joined together and made it dead good!

Anyway guys, I hope you enjoy the rest of year 6 and that secondary school goes well for you!

Take care,

Steph

You were such a lively bunch and really filled the Briars with your amazing energy! I loved getting to know you guys and you tried so hard at everything we did. My small group was dead good and I loved how well you all worked together; there really was never a dull moment with you guys! I have to mention the amazing canvas’ that you made in the workshops…they are now hanging beautifully in their prospective places! Well done to my small group too for their work on the introduction to mass, I thought it was very good! Though the whole of mass was pretty spectacular to be honest!

Good luck with the rest of year 8, hope it all goes well for you!

Take care,

This has been such a relaxed and chilled out weekend, and it has been thoroughly enjoyable! You were all just so friendly and easy to chat to and it was great to see some familiar faces, as well as meeting many other lovely people!

A big hello to my small group ‘Squirt the Yellow chicken with Cillet Bang whilst eating tadpoles.’ You worked really hard in everything that we had to do and I thought you did especially well on our morning prayer which was dead good. I was so impressed with how you just came up with it all yourselves so well done!

Mass on Saturday was awesome, all the roleplays were really funny!

Anyway, good luck with your GCSE’s, I hope everything goes well for you!

Take care,

What a fantastic week we had! It was so jam packed and I loved every second of it! The highlight of the week for me had to be bowling, you were all so good and I think Smatt only just narrowly lost on mine and Matt’s lane! A big shout out to my small group ‘bangers and mash united’. You were all lovely and I loved getting to know you all. Thanks for all your hard work, I thought our intro to mass was awesome, so well done for coming up with such great ideas!

I thought reconciliation on Wednesday was really good and I loved all your ideas, they were all dead powerful and very thought provoking, so well done to you all!

Anyway, good luck with the rest of year 9, hope it goes well for you!

Take care,

Steph

I really enjoyed this very powerful weekend : ) Above all I loved the round robin on the first night as you all got involved really well and just got stuck in and entered into the spirit of things! A big hello to my small group! You were a great laugh and you did so well in everything that we did. The roleplay for mass was top and you worked really well for that!

The walk on Saturday was a lot of fun, and you all seemed to really enjoy it too!

Hope the rest of year 8 goes well for you!

Take care,
