Catholic Schools Week 2024

Catholic Schools Week 2024 takes place from Sunday 21 to Saturday 27 January. The theme for CSW 2024 is Catholic Schools: Communities of Service.

Christian service puts faith into action. In Catholic schools, as we study and look to Jesus Christ as our role model and Teacher, we come to a greater understanding of the depth of Christian service. Jesus served every person regardless of creed, background, faith, social status or age. He put faith into action by showing all those around him how our Heavenly Father is compassionate, courageous and forgiving. Jesus didn’t just talk about His faith; He lived it.

We are called by faith to go into the world to share the love of God with all those we meet. Each person, at every age, is called to become Christ for another by serving every person with a humble heart and with a generous spirit.

During Catholic Schools Week, the daily resources will help each class to explore how they act as communities of service in different environments:

Monday: Service in Our Community of Friends
Tuesday: Service in Our School Community
Wednesday: Service in Our Family Community
Thursday: Service in Our Local Community
Friday: Service in Our Faith Community
