We are blessed to have two vibrant Catholic primary schools- St. Bernadette’s and St Michael’s- at the heart of our parish community. United by a shared mission to nurture faith, learning, and belonging, both schools foster a sacred bond between home, parish, and school life.
Our Parish Priest, Father Steven, plays an active and joyful role in the life of our schools, regularly visiting to celebrate Mass, support RE lessons, and accompany our children on their faith journeys.
Year 3 pupils from both schools walk together in friendship and prayer as they prepare for the Sacraments, supported by dedicated staff and the parish Sacramental Team.
With our schools located nearby, children are able to participate in school Masses, parish celebrations, and enriching RE experiences. The parish hall also serves as a welcoming space for after-school activities and community gatherings, strengthening the ties between school and parish life.
Together, our schools are places where faith is lived, friendships are formed, and every child is encouraged to grow in love, wisdom, and joy.
