As a Catholic school, our day incorporates opportunities for prayer and reflection. We provide daily collective worship for all registered pupils which may take place during tutor time, assemblies, or at other points during the school day, allowing our community to grow in faith together.
After-School Activities
We offer a range of extra-curricular activities and clubs after school. Details of these activities are communicated to students and families throughout the year. Students attending after-school activities should follow the specific timings provided by activity leaders.
