Our Catholic Life

 

We want our family here at St Paul’s to be full of JOY.

As our patron St Paul encourages us to :

“Be joyful in hope,

patient in difficulties

and faithful in prayer

 (Romans 2:12)

 

Our DESIRE is that everyone will have a positive experience during their time at St Paul’s

 by adhering to these tenets:

Jesus – Follow his example

Others – put others before yourself

Yourself – be your best self.

This is the cornerstone of our Catholic Life and Mission, a school with Christ at our centre, supported by our Class and House Saints.

 

 

 

In preparation for the 2025 Jubilee Year 'Pilgrims of Hope', 2024 has been designated a Year of Prayer by Pope Francis. It starts this Advent. There is a particular focus on the Our Father, and this presents us with a great opportunity to go back to the basics of prayer on earth as it is in Heaven.

 

 

 

 

 

March is the month of St. Joseph.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Catholic Social Teaching at St. Paul's

 

 

 

 

At St. Paul's, we have worked on a bespoke set of seven principles of CST, which are prominently displayed in classrooms and central areas. The children are very familiar with them.

They are taught as a discrete topic in the Autumn term and referred to in may other lessons.
