πŸŽ‰πŸ’•Catholic Schools Week 2023 – Walking Together in Faith & Love πŸŽ‰πŸ’•

24th Jan 2023

Each of us are on a journey in life. For Catholics, this journey begins and ends with God. Each moment on that journey is a chance to come to know and love God, who has been revealed to us in Jesus Christ. We can feel God’s presence when we pray, when we spend time with loved ones, in nature, in moments of joy and when we come together as a community to celebrate God’s love at Mass. As we walk along our journey, God is
with us every step of the way.

Every Catholic school seeks to help students along their journey, nurturing their gifts and talents. Each student is a reflection of God with the potential to make society a kinder and more just place for all. The Church is currently in the process of synodality, which literally means ‘journeying together’. This means that Catholics are called to come together and discern what the Holy Spirit is calling the Church to do and to be.

This Catholic Schools Week, we celebrate the unique contribution our schools make to the lives of our pupils, community and Church. As we journey together, may we always be inspired by the Holy Spirit to be all that God made us to be. May we talk together in faith and love. 

On Wednesday we celebrate Grandparents Day!! We invite all grandparents to join us for a coffee morning with their grandchild/grandchildren!!
