Mini Vinnies 2025/26

Our new Mini Vinnies, wrote a letter to Mrs Kitson, explaining why they want to become Mini Vinnies and how they hope that they will make a difference to others

Mini Vinnies Assembly 2025

In October, the Mini Vinnies spoke to the school during assembly. They read out their pledge and explained to the school what it means to be a Mini Vinnie. They were also able to talk about some of the things they had  already done to support children in school to become closer to God. .

Rosary:

During the month of October, the Mini Vinnies helped Year 1 children pray a decade of the Rosary.

Year 1 Workshop

Mini Vinnies came to year 1 to help them learn the ‘Our Father’. We then supported the children in a workshop which helped them understand the meaning of the words of the ‘Our Father’.

Care Home Visit:

In December, we visited the local care home and sang some carols to the residents. We then were able to spend some time chatting with them and we were able to ask them about Christmas when they were young.

The Mini Vinnies have been thinking about the meaning of their prayer and what it means in St Augustine's. They went round school to film their prayer in action.
