RE/Catholic Life

At St Dominic’s, Religious Education is at the heart of our curriculum and our Catholic faith is woven through all that we do. RE is central to the Catholic Life and Mission of our school and is enriched through prayer, liturgy and collective worship.

We recognise that every child is unique, loved by God and created in His image and likeness. Guided by our mission statement, ‘As children of God, we love one another,’ we nurture our children to grow in faith and love, develop their God-given gifts and show compassion and respect to others.

We follow the Diocesan RE strategy, ‘Discerning Disciples’, which helps children deepen their knowledge and understanding of the Catholic faith and learn how to live as disciples of Jesus. A minimum of 10% of curriculum time is dedicated to Religious Education.

Message from our Parish Priest Father Doyle:

As a Catholic parish we lay great emphasis on the sacredness and uniqueness of every child. It is a privilege to help our children to grow and develop, to prepare for the future. So begins a time when we will, with our children’s families, provide an environment in which our children will grow in their Christian faith as well as the many aspects of knowledge.

We aim to facilitate and form the whole child, to feed the child’s heart and the mind. We will not succeed without God’s help.

My prayer is: “Lord, send the Holy Spirit upon all involved in the life of our school. Open our hearts and minds to Your holy will. Let all we say and do be pleasing to You and help spread Your kingdom of love. Amen.”

God bless you all.
