Caritas Ambassadors

Our very special Caritas Ambassadors joined pupils and staff from ten other primary schools to learn all about their new role. Sister Judith led our day and taught us all about what it means to be an ambassador of Christ and to put His love into action. Bishop David commissioned them and this was a very special occasion.

 

Caritas in Action

Catholic Social Teaching is based on the belief that God has a plan for creation, a plan to build his kingdom of peace, love and justice.

It holds that God has a special plan for every single one of us, whoever we are. Our part in this plan isn’t just limited to things ‘spiritual’, or times when we do “religious things.” It involves every aspect of our lives, from the things we pray about, to how we live as a responsible global citizen.

Our part in this story is a kind-of vocation for the common good, a call to treat everyone as our brothers and sisters. It is something that we all share.

Caritas in Action provides a unique cross-curriculum and multi key stage approach for embedding the principles of Catholic Social Teaching.
