Mission Statement
Inspired by Christ
Our school is inspired by Christ to nurture each member of our school community in their journey of faith and learning to become the individuals that God intends them to be.
We aim to achieve this through:
- Caring for the dignity of the human person - understanding that we are made in the image and likeness of God and ensure high quality pastoral care and support for our SEND and vulnerable children
- Standing in solidarity for others - providing a rich and varied curriculum that taches children to stand in unison with others to share their voices and opinions and remember that we are one global community
- Thinking about those who are less fortunate than ourselves - creating opportunities for children to care for others both in our school community, parish and more globally by supporting local, national and international organisations
- Teaching responsibility in caring for creation and the environment - learning through the Evolve Curriculum teaches the children to broaden their understanding of caring for all God's creation and the importance of sustainability
- Understanding the importance of participation - teaching the children that they have a voice that can be actively used to campaign against injustice and inequalities
We grow in faith through our Learning and Growing as the People of God and place Christ at the centre of all we do.
Weekly Masses
Each week our school participates in mass at church with Fr Paul and our church community.
Prayer an Liturgy
Our school has a chaplaincy team that leads in prayer buddies, supports Ms MacLennan during gospel assemblies, meets with Fr Paul and leads during class prayer times.
"I am the light of the world; he who follows me shall by no means walk in darkness but shall have the light of life."
John 8:12
Our First Holy Communion Children
Lord Jesus,
Bless the children coming forward to receive Holy Communion for the first time. May this day be an initial step into a life-long love of the Eucharist. Give them a hunger for this sacred food so that they turn to you for comfort, guidance, and wisdom as they grow into full discipleship. Thank you for their innocence and goodness. May their hands, extended in anticipation of your Body and Blood, inspire all of us to cherish this sacred sacrament.
Our Confirmation Children
Confirmation is the sacrament by which we receive a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Through Confirmation, the Holy Spirit gives us the increased ability to practice our Catholic faith in every aspect of our lives and to witness Christ in every situation.
Prayer
Prayer is an important part of our daily lives. Sometimes we all pray together and other times we pray silently in quiet reflection. All our prayers are thoughtful and meaningful to us. We can pray for ourselves, our families, our community and those around the world.
Christmas Nativities
Every year our whole school performs a version of the Nativity which takes place in the church and our school community are invited to attend.
