Jesus’ loving presence in the lives of our young people
as they learn and grow in our Catholic Schools and Colleges
Giving thanks to Almighty God for the vocation of all who work with the children and young people in the Catholic education sector: governors, school leaders, chaplains, teaching and support staff.
