The Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi
1st September – 4th October (the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi) is the season of creation when we celebrate the Awe and Wonder of our world.
Each student is invited to share the Christian story through classroom lessons, daily prayer, reflective experiences, celebrations of liturgy and participation in action for social justice.
Our students may choose to prepare for First Eucharist and Confirmation, which are the external signs of a commitment to a Christian life.
Throughout the school year our students participate in celebrations of the main events of the life of Christ – Lent, Easter and Christmas – through whole school Masses and classroom liturgies.
At English Martyrs we maintain the commitment of Social Justice to work for the most marginalised people in our community. We encourage students to participate in a broad range of social justice programs, with a particular focus on mercy projects, both locally and abroad.
