Our Catholic Faith

The traditions of our Catholic faith provide a strong foundation for learning and teaching.

  • Opportunities for social action and justice are planned for and provided.
  • Religious Education experiences reflect Catholic traditions and are meaningful and relevant to our contemporary world.
