Catholic Schools Week
Our three schools in the parish are Catholic Schools. This is the week when we are invited to consider how we can best support our schools and how we can work towards valuing the handing on of the faith to our children through our own work and through the importance of the schools in this work May this work for the Catholic faith be as important now as in the past.
