General Information.
We have two school chaplains, Father Burns is the Senior School Chaplain and Father Lyons is the Junior School Chaplain. They have both got a strong liturgical role within the school community.
Each Year the pupils get involved with charitable activities these range from collecting hampers for St Vincent de Paul at Christmas, to the collection of money for The Christian Brothers Mission. The students actively support the missions in Zambia through participation in the Immersion Project where they visit Zambia and work in the schools and compounds. The first years also get actively involved in a sponsored walk for the MS Society.
All the year groups get involved in the daily assembly where they read out prayers and role-play various themes for the assemblies.
