Catholic Education Sunday

We pray:
  • That our Catholic schools may reveal the glory of God in all that they do
  • That our year of ‘Courage to Lead’ may be rooted in the synodal practices of listening, dialogue and discernment
  • That our Catholic schools may nurture the growth of wisdom and virtue in the young
  • For unity and solidarity within our communities
School council elections will be held in spring 2024. More information about this critical volunteer role will be shared throughout the year. If you are interested in knowing more, check out the "About Us" tab and scroll to School Council Elections to view the handbook. Or connect any time with current school council members. Monthly meetings are open to the public and schedules can be found on the schools' websites.
