Celebrating St Teresa's Feast Day and Little Way Week

This week, our school community has been joyfully celebrating Little Way Week as we prepare for St Teresa's Feast Day and reflect on the inspiring life and message of St Thérèse of Lisieux, our school patron saint. Last Friday, we were delighted to welcome Maria from Mission Together, the children's branch of Missio, the Pope's charity. Maria spoke to the children about St Thérèse and her teaching of the 'Little Way', reminding us that we do not need to do extraordinary things to make a difference. Instead, we can show God's love through small acts of kindness, service, prayer and love in our everyday lives.
