Normal Lives; Called to holiness

19th Jan 2026

Catholic Schools Week was joyfully launched in our school with a beautiful assembly led by our Primary 7 pupils, ably supported by our youngest learners in Primary 1. Reflecting this year’s theme, “Normal lives; called to holiness,” the assembly reminded us that holiness is something we are all called to live out each day through kindness, service and faith in our ordinary lives. It was a lovely celebration of our shared Catholic ethos and the strong sense of family within our school community.
