They take a lead with our Caritas in Action work suggesting ways our whole community can join in.

Our theme for this half term is: Family and Community.
The Faith Group have encouraged us to…
·Enjoy spending time with members of our family
·Reach out to members of our community
·Pray for the members of our global family who are victims of conflict
The Eco Club looks after our school environment and look for ways to reduce our negative impact on the earth.
Caritas: Love in ActionWhat is Laudato Si?
In Laudato Si'–an encyclical letter from Pope Francis in 2015 On Care For Our Common Home, Pope Francis recognises that “everything is connected” and encourages us to hear both the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor.
The Eco Representatives meet every Wednesday lunchtime and do lots of things to take care of our school. They share ideas, set environmental targets, run workshops using recycled crafts, run environmental campaigns across the school and hold assemblies to update our pupils. Each class in the school has their own Eco Representatives
Our school council leads our fundraising. We hear 'the cry of the poor...' and answer where we can.
