Operation Christmas Child

24th November 2023

This week we sent off a fantastic 62 shoeboxes to Operation Christmas Child to bring love and joy to young people across the world living in warzones, as refugees or in extreme poverty.

We are really grateful for the support of our students, parents, parishioners, clergy and staff for working phenomenally hard to donate items for their tutor groups’ shoeboxes and for making such a profound difference to young people across the world. We are also immensely proud of the exceptional efforts of students in Year 8 who are working with their tutor groups to make £5 grow through the parable of the talents social action project.

Students have been using their £5s to run a range of exciting charity events such as cake sales, sports afternoons and competitions across the school. Students in year 8 are living out Catholic Social Teaching by choosing ways to support various charities of their choice ranging from dog shelters, cancer connections and Hebburn Helps.

We are immensely proud of everyone’s hard work.

God bless and keep up the fantastic efforts.
