As part of our Social Justice work at St Michael’s we support various missions and appeals throughout the year including  St Vincent De Paul, Caritas, MS and Juvenile Diabetes etc. 

The Religious Education Curriculum, Christian Life and Catholic Social Teaching, helps the children align what we do in support of these organisations with the call to love God and one another.

We have shared a partnership with Catholic Mission through our work for the Socktober Appeal for many years. Catholic Mission work in different communities around the world to help them establish various projects to support their community in some way. The focus this year is on the communities of Ethiopia, helping them to develop projects that will help sustain and enrich the lives of vulnerable children.

On Thursday 21st July, Mark Clarke from Catholic Mission will be visiting St Michael’s. Mark will work with the Student Leaders as we form a plan for our Mission work for the rest of 2022. The children will have the opportunity to learn more about the work of Catholic Mission, particularly in Ethiopia, and the importance of our support.

While Mark is at St Michaels he will also speak to each of the Grade 5/6 classes about Catholic Mission.  

We look forward to sharing some news of our day with you.
