A solitary star on its own is not always noticed but when put with other stars to form a Constellation, they shine brightly.✨
Last week we asked our students, what do you bring to our family at school? What quality do you think shines brightly within you?

It's Ash Wednesday and we begin the season of Lent.

At this time, we are called to renewal and transformation. Read the first of our Lent reflections as we pray that our fasting, giving and prayer will draw us nearer to God and our neighbours. ⤵️

Approximately 70% of teenagers don’t get enough sleep and this can have a detrimental effect on concentration and achievement, and lead to issues of anxiety and stress.
Keep an eye on our socials over the next few weeks for tips on how to break this cycle!
