Catholic Life and Mission

Catholic Life of our School

Christ and his teachings are very much at the heart of all that we do at Venerable Edward Morgan School. Together with parents and parish we seek to develop and nurture the Catholic faith of our children and bring them to a fuller understanding and knowledge of Catholic teaching and tradition. The school is aware of the important role that parents have in developing and nurturing their child's faith. We seek to involve parents in our religious life through invitations to Masses, assemblies and liturgies.

The Catholic life of our school is rich in opportunities for children to encounter God and to deepen their relationship with Him as a loving, compassionate Father.

Through prayer, both traditional and informal liturgies and Religious Education lessons children receive direct teaching of the faith. It is through the relationships and support for each other that children, staff and parents enjoy within the school community, we enable children to come to know and experience God's love.

Catholic Social Teaching

Catholic Social Teaching is founded in Scripture and includes statements and letters written by Church leaders. It offers wisdom and insights on living the Gospel in today’s world. Jesus tells us to love God and to love our neighbours, especially our sisters and brothers living in poverty. We use Catholic Social Teaching principles to guide all that we do at Venerable Edward Morgan.
