The excitement around school was infectious. ### Supporting the Great North Air Ambulance All donations were given to the **Great North Air Ambulance**, a remarkable service that provides life‑saving critical care across the region. We were delighted to welcome representatives from the charity, who delivered an engaging assembly about their vital work. Pupils also enjoyed meeting the charity’s mascot, **Miles the Bear**. ### A Fantastic Fundraising Total Thanks to the generosity of our school community, we are proud to announce that we raised **£362.40**. **Thank you to everyone for your kind donations and support.** **![](https://holyrosary.bhcet.org.uk/images/686939795_1488936343020423_9036029208788370316_n.jpg)![](https://holyrosary.bhcet.org.uk/images/687273568_1488936533020404_7255751454679531183_n.jpg)** [Community Links](https://holyrosary.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/community-links) [ Year 5 Shine at Netball Tournament](https://holyrosary.bhcet.org.uk/news/2026-05-05-year-5-shine-at-netball-tournament) [Quad Kids Athletics: Year 4 Give It Their All ](https://holyrosary.bhcet.org.uk/news/2026-05-11-quad-kids-athletics-year-4-give-it-their-all) ![Our Lady Of The Most Holy Rosary Catholic Academy](https://files.schudio.com/our-lady-of-the-most-holy-rosary-catholic-academy-2/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### Our Lady Of The Most Holy Rosary Catholic Academy Rievaulx Avenue Billingham TS23 2BS 01642 552274 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/OLMHR/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/holyrosary_billingham/) ### Translation ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 Our Lady Of The Most Holy Rosary Catholic Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://holyrosary.bhcet.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
