The Department of Education is currently conducting a Primary School Survey that will determine the future provision of Primary Schools and crucially could lead to lasting changes in your school. In simple, direct terms, you are being asked if you want your school to stay a Catholic school or if you want that to change. Don’t leave it to others, have your say before 16 December 2025

JUBILEE TO STRENGTHEN FAITH AND RECOGNIZE CHRIST IN OUR MIDST
“During the Holy Year,” the Pope has prayed, “may the light of Christian hope enlighten every man and woman, as a message of God’s love addressed to all! And may the Church bear faithful witness to this message in every part of the world!” Pope Francis invited us to pray, to prepare ourselves throughout this year, so that this Jubilee may “strengthen us in our faith, helping us to recognize the Risen Christ in the midst of our lives, transforming us into pilgrims of Christian hope.” “If God can visit us, even when our hearts seem like a lowly manger, we can truly say: Hope is not dead; hope is alive and it embraces our lives forever!”
