Catholic Schools Week 2011
Theme: Rooted in Jesus Christ. During this week (30th January to 5th February), parents are encouraged to take time to reflect on what it means to have a child as part of a Catholic School Community and to consider how they can support the work being done in their child's Catholic School. This week gives us the opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the tremendous contribution that our Catholic Schools make, not just to Irish Society, but to the mission of the Church.
