  Thank you to our Mini Vinnies, Head Boy, and Head Girl who joined Mrs. Kowalska in delivering our school’s Harvest collection.

• Pope Leo announced

  Fri 09 May 2025 Mrs Sewell

   

  We welcome Pope Leo as he represents Christ and 1.4 billion people. His first words as Pope were 'Peace Be with You', just like the risen Jesus did as his first words to his flock. Let us keep Pope Leo in our thoughts and prayers as he takes on the honour of being the new head of the Church. 

  

• Our Lady of Lourdes Visitation

  Fri 07 Mar 2025 Mrs Sewell

  On Wednesday 5th March as we began our Lenten journey, we celebrated Ash Wednesday Mass with St Wulstan's who brought the statue of Our Lady, from the diocese, which is visiting the Catholic primary and secondary schools as part of the Jubilee Year of Hope. 

  The children processed the statue into school on the Thursday; we had the opportunity to pray with the statue, as well as engage in prayer with different prayer stations. We finalised our time with the statue with our Mini Vinnies leading a farewell liturgy which Fr Stephen and Deacon Bernard joined us for.

  Finally, we delivered Our Lady to Sacred Heart, joining their welcome liturgy.
