Chaplaincy

“A good school provides a rounded education for the whole person. And a good Catholic school, over and above this, should help all its students to become saints.”

Pope Benedict

The School is very fortunate to have a Chaplaincy team.

The team is involved in a range of areas of school life from morning briefing for staff to the organisation of charity events and retreats.

Through the teaching of our faith we are able to support and encourage our school community, we ensure a strong promotion of our school’s Catholic ethos. In doing this we ensure that both children and staff are involved/lead a daily worship including weekly masses for each year group. At our school we take part in a number of events and programmes that involve us living our faith.

As a school, we plan to provide more opportunities for students to be involved in the planning and evaluation of collective worship.  We have introduced system of Form Chaplains in years 7 and 8 to help to plan assemblies and Mass.
