Catholic Social Justice Group

As a selected group, we want to lead the school in creating an inclusive culture that embraces each person for their uniqueness and talents.

Drawing inspiration from his encyclical letter Fratelli Tutti (Brothers and Sisters Together), we want to become champions for Pope Francis, raising awareness for change and raising money for those who need it.

The Gospel story at the heart of Fratelli Tutti is the parable of the Good Samaritan.

Jesus’s story of the foreigner who acts as a true neighbour to the man robbed and beaten by the side of the road.  This moves us to respond to our sister or brother in need, whoever they are, wherever they may come from. We are challenged to turn outwards, to act as neighbours, and to reach out to all those who are in need.

Activities include raising awareness and collecting for the local foodbank, supporting CAFOD harvest and Lent fundraising, collecting for a local hospice through the 'OxTrail' initiative, and collecting for the Diocesan charity Father Hudson's Care.
