• Pupil Chaplains Fundraiser

  Wed 02 Apr 2025

  Two of our wonderful Pupil Chaplains are self-funding to attend the Diocese of Salford Pilgrimage to Lourdes in August 2025.

   

  They will be working as volunteers assisting sick and elderly Pilgrims to have a full experience of this popular Pilgrimage during this Jubilee year of Hope.

   

  Please support their fundraising by sharing the links with your families, friends, Worship Communities and Social media contacts. We are so proud of these two for making a personal decision to live out their faith outside the boundaries of our school and  for giving up part of their summer holidays to help others. This is a great testament to the growth and development of their faith life. Please note that, as they are under 18, their parents will be stated as beneficiaries on the GoFundMe pages.

• Important Changes to Bee Network Child Tickets

  Tue 01 Apr 2025

  Important changes to Bee Network child tickets 

  From 23 March tap and go contactless payments are being introduced across Bee Network buses and trams for full fare paying adults only.  

  Child tickets are not available using tap and go. Children can continue to use their current method of payment for travelling to school or leisure (e.g. cash, contactless).  

  At the same time, we’re making it even easier to pay for child tickets on the Bee Network app. 

  Single child hopper tickets will be available on the app, alongside a range of other child tickets. It’s the safe, cash-free way to pay for travel. 

  Here’s our top tips for paying for child fares from 23 March: 

  • Download the Bee Network app to pay for a range of child tickets. 
  • When paying with contactless always ask the bus driver for a child ticket before tapping your card (to avoid getting charged adult fare). 
  • Keep your TfGM travel pass (igo card, Our Pass) separate from bank cards when you tap the card reader, to avoid your bank card being charged an adult fare.  

   

  As always, your one-stop-shop for travelling to school information is available at www.beenetwork.com/schools  

  If you have any further questions or want to speak to someone, please get in touch with the Bee Network Contact Centre online or call: 0161 244 1000.
