On Friday 27th November, it was the St Edmund’s Feast Day Mass. We came together as a whole school and celebrated our Patron St Edmund and all the activities and successes we have had in and around our community. It was a beautiful service led by Monsignor Fr Mark Crisp, and Fr Paul Bielak in front of 800 students, staff and dignitaries.
Father Mark Crisp reminded everyone of how “St Edmund Campion was victim of severe religious intolerance and how the story of his life should stir us up to make sure that we all become passionate ambassadors of tolerance.”
In his homily Monsignor Crisp also reminded all pupils of the family moving forward together in the diverse community, with prayers being said for the people of Paris after the recent atrocities there.
After Mass, Governors and friends were treated to cakes and refreshments to mark the Feast of St Edmund.
Special thanks to everyone who attended including; the readers, the Alter servers, the choir and those who contributed in making it such a wonderful celebration.
