Today was our outing to sunny Ratcliffe-on-the-Wreake, to the beautiful setting of Ratcliffe College. We had the great responsibility of bringing the year 7 forms closer together through team building games. After we had done that some brave volunteers were asked to contribute to the community mass by preparing the penitential rite, bidding prayers and the Gospel, while they were at task the rest of us made decorations for the altar. We then had a delicious lunch in the refectory and soon got into the swing of our singing practice. To round off the day we celebrated mass together to offer up all we had done in the day and to be together as a family in prayer. It was a great day, with loads of sun, singing and beautiful singing.
