This week was Acts of Kindness week at St Mary's. It has been wonderful to see so many people filling our school with kindness. We have run the kindness post and bingo, and staff have been involved by doing secret acts of kindness for each other too! What a wonderful week!
Over the last 2 weeks, we have run a number of fundraising activities for the #CAFOD#HarvestFastDay appeal. We are pleased to announce that we have raised a massive £524.28! Huge thanks to all who contributed!
Yesterday our Chaplaincy Leaders led a reflection at the #SeasonOfCreation liturgy at St Kentigern's. We were encouraged to listen to the voice of creation, which Pope Francis calls a "Sweet song of praise of our beloved creator." So proud of our students!
Yesterday we said a huge thank you and farewell to Delcan and Shawn, our @CAFOD#StepIntoTheGap volunteers. They have been brilliant in supporting our students and our local schools and promoting CAFOD's work and campaigns. Good luck for the future!
Pleased to be taking 45 pairs of shoes to @CitizensUK this afternoon to help our friends arriving from Ukraine that have been donated by our staff and students. A huge thanks to all for your generosity! #payitforward#reuse#SecondLife
@parkerd3111@CitizensUK So sorry no one replied to this earlier Deborah. I hope you managed to hand them in to the school office before we finished for summer. Thanks for your generosity!
Do you have any shoes that you no longer want? Maybe you have grown out of them or they're not your style. Please bring them in to school to donate them to the community wardrobe @CitizensUK for Ukrainian Refugees in Blackpool. #recycle#reuse#SecondLife
Today we welcomed 350 very special visitors from our local primaries to celebrate Mass outside in our school grounds. It was a wonderful (and rather warm) celebration for all who have most recently made their first holy communion! #eucharist#firstholycommunion
St Mary's students raised a fantastic £979.88 for @CAFOD#WalkAgainstHunger Patrick from @CAFODLancaster said "Thank you to everyone for helping us stamp out hunger. Your acts of love are making big things happen.
