🙏 Catholic Schools Week 2024 ⛪️
Fri 26 Jan 2024This week marked Catholic Schools Week, the theme this year being ‘Catholic Schools as Communities of Service'.
Pupils celebrated this special week in our Faith calendar by completing lessons and activities around this theme. All the children attended a beautiful Grandparents’ Day Mass as part of our celebrations on Thursday and Catholic Schools Week culminated today in a very special Grandparent's Coffee Morning.
It was fantastic to have so many parents & grandparents in school today and the children loved sharing a cup of tea with them all, giving them a tour of their classrooms and showcasing some of the special activities they have completed this week as part of the ‘Catholic Schools as Communities of Service' theme.
Today was a wonderful way to mark the conclusion to Catholic Schools Week 2024 and we are very grateful to everyone for supporting the children throughout this special week.
