We gather as a community of faith to listen to and put into practice the teachings of Jesus Christ as part of the mission of the Church. Following the Church’s Calendar we worship together in public celebrations of the liturgy seeking to grow spiritually in faith, hope and love through the direction of the Holy Spirit.

The final week of Lent has groups walk the Stations of the Cross around the school grounds.

Around the Feast of Corpus Christi, forms from Lower School spend time in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament using Lectio Divina  and concluding with Benediction.

Our Feast Day on the Feast of St Peter and St Paul has the whole school gather for the celebration of Mass

Our Staff begin the academic Year with a Staff Liturgy and celebrate a Mass during the last week of the year with those who are leaving our community.

In guidance with the teachings of the Church we respect and encourage our students of other faiths to develop in their own faith life, sharing our common aim of ‘walking humbly with our God.’
