August and Abdeslam Cherkaoui will be attending Discover,

part in academic experiences outside of school. During the last
year there were some 40+ opportunities for them ranging from a
day at Credit Suisse, residential at Oxford University, engineering
master classes and a visit to Diamond Light Source. Several Sixth
Formers are waiting to hear back about Summer school places

Our Bible verse for the week:

TRUST in the LORD with all
your HEART and lean not
on your OWN
understanding
Proverbs 3:5

Today we pray for the healing of the nations. Where

there is violent conflict may we build peace. Where
there is disease may we bring healing. Where there is
deprivation may we be generous in our giving. Where
there is loneliness and despair may we reveal light
and hope. Into our own conflict, sickness, destitution
and aloneness may we allow others to bring peace,
restoration, generosity and renewed vision.
Amen
