We've had a busy start to the diocesan pilgrimage to Lourdes. Students have met their pilgrims and processed to the opening mass and blessing of hands. We've spent time in the Grotto and at our catechesis session where we heard about the importance of procession #Lourdes2026

Three of our pupils attended a wonderful celebration for the Good Shepherd at St Anne's Cathedral where they presented the Bishop with a cheque for over one thousand pounds for Catholic Care on behalf of our school thanks to all the wonderful fundraising we did together over Lent

We welcomed sisters Therese and Juan-Maria from the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal yesterday who spoke to our year 9 students on how they came serve God in their lives. We are proud to support the incredible work they do to support the community.

Some of our Year 8 students have been at Leeds University this week for Junior Detectives. They have learnt about Crime Scene investigations and suspect interviews, as well as learning more about the impact of knife crime on individuals, families and communities.

Our Common Good Influencers had fun serving and entertaining guests at the Leeds Irish Health and Homes St Patrick's Day Afternoon Tea today.

To celebrate World Book Day students donated a book in exchange for a 'new to them' one and Mrs Murphy's Y9 students played a book Traitors game where traitors had to convince their friends they had read a book they hadn't, while the faithful were able to share a favourite book.

Today we welcomed Richard from @notredamecoll. Our Y10 students will each get an opportunity to visit Notre Dame for a taster day. Today they learnt about what that will entail as well as choosing 3 subjects they would like to experience whilst they are there.

Our Y10 students had a wonderful time in Andalucía, From participating in Spanish language classes to tasting tapas, exploring the Moorish architecture in Granada and watching flamenco they have been a real credit, showing kindness, courage and enthusiasm. ¡Gracias a todos!

We've had a jammed packed day in Seville - Including cheering on runners in the marathon around the Plaza de España. Today's visits included the Real Alcazar, las Setas and a flamenco show at the famous Museo del Baile Flamenco. The pupils have been practicing their Spanish lots!

The weather has been kinder to us since Granada. Blue skies and a balmy 18 degrees. We visited the stunning Mezquita in Cordoba which was converted from a mosque into a cathedral in 1492 when the Reyes Catolicos took over the Muslim rule.

A fantastic first couple of days for our spanish trip students. A visit to the Alhambra this morning and the cathedral last night.

Today is the culmination of a week long celebration of our diverse community. #cultureweek
