We strive to instil within the children a sense of belonging within a range of communities and for them to play an active role as members of society.

Children on the Sacramental programme are expected to attend the 5.30pm Mass on Saturday as part of their preparation for Confirmation and First Holy Communion.

Parents with children in years 3, 4 and 5 will be able to watch the musical performance which the children have been working on with their teachers and the music teacher over the past few months. It is spectacular focussing on story and song from Cameroon. Not to be missed!
