Welcome

I am delighted to be working together with you to help our students reach their potential spiritually, academically, and socially. Working together in partnership with our parishes and communities, we nurture our core values, encouraging each student’s spiritual and academic development. Working with the local and wider community is of high importance to us and community links are fully embedded into the life and work of the school and we believe they provide valuable experiences which support the curriculum and enhance our students’ learning. In line with our core values, we feel that through community projects our students will develop respect for others and care for the environment.
