Catholic Life
Catholic Life at Our Lady and St Benedict Catholic Academy is rich and vibrant, as we are a community rooted in the teachings and practices of Christ. Our Mission Statement 'Loving, Learning and Looking forward with Christ ' is lived out by all within the school community.
Our Lady and St Benedict Catholic Academy is a place where all are valued, where we learn to Love, Learn and Look forward with Christ. Rooted in our Catholic faith, we strive to ensure that our school is a place of Love, peace, happiness and truth, one where every child is known and loved.
The Catholic Life of our school infiltrates all aspects of school life. Our curriculum embeds the Catholic Social Teaching Principals and they permeate through all areas of the curriculum.
We do this in a wide variety of ways, for example, active participation in regular worship, prayer and liturgy, celebrating the sacraments, focusing upon the nine principles of Catholic Social Teaching and the Catholic Schools' Pupil Profile (Values and Virtues), our learning in all areas of the curriculum and the many fundraising events and stewardship activities that we participate in throughout the year.
