This week draws attention to the special role that Catholic schools have as faith communities which offer mercy, reconciliation and forgiveness to all those around. In this Jubilee Year of Mercy in which the Holy Doors have been opened, all community members have been called to deepen their understanding of mercy.

We hope to see many of you during our school celebrations.
