Through the season of Advent we looked forward with hope to the birth of Christ, our thoughts naturally turn to the babies and young children within our own community. At this time of year especially, we are reminded of the Holy Family and of our calling, as a Catholic school, to offer compassion and support to those in need. Sadly, many families locally are facing real hardship, and the suffering of the very young is something that touches us all. On Friday 9th January we collected items for a local baby bank, Snow Drop Doula in Accrington. We had a wonderful response to the collection and the centre were overwhelmed with our donations.
