A Meditation
by John Henry Newman
God has created me to do
Him some definite service.
He has committed some work
to me which He has not
committed to another
I am a link in a chain,
a bond of connection
between persons.
He has not created me
for naught.
I shall do good
I shall do His work.
When a student gains a place at Cardinal Newman Catholic School she or he will be welcomed into a community that prides itself on its care for each individual. Our school mission statement celebrates the uniqueness of each person. We recognise the personal and academic differences within our student body and it is our goal to offer an appropriate level of support and challenge that ensures individual growth and success.
As parents you entrust your children to us and it is our task to join in a partnership with the home to raise that child in a secure environment built on Christian principles that prepares each student for the world. Sound discipline, care and support, and academic challenge are our guidelines and we are confident that your children will benefit from their time at Cardinal Newman and will be encouraged to contribute towards our further growth.

Year 11 Revision Sessions
Following the days lost to severe weather and the imminent exam season, there is a variety of revision sessions being offered to students after school to support them in their revision and exam technique.
Please encourage your child to attend. It is essential they remain focused during the next few months.
Bikeability
We have an increasing number of students riding to school and would wish to encourage this. During halfterm, Brighton & Hove City Council is providing cycle training at two levels, for 9-13 year olds, at Preston Park (Monday-Friday, 10.00am-12.00pm). For more details and to make a booking, please contact Emily Tester on 01273 293847.
Off the Fence
Family and friends attending our Advent Service contributed £274.67 to the charity for the homeless, 'Off the Fence'. In view of the recent severe weather, our gift will have helped make life a little more bearable for them.
Haiti Disaster
On Friday, 12th February, there will be a non-uniform day to support the disaster relief. Students will be asked to contribute £1. Our catering service 'Chartwells' will prepare a Caribbean menu for lunch and profits from this will also go towards the relief funds. Year 11 have chosen Haiti as their Lenten charity for 2010.
