Each half term, we place a focus on one are of the Catholic Schools' Pupil Profile, yet that is not the end.
We embrace all of the Values and Virtues that we learn about - see below.
Children use the language of these Values and Virtues when discussing their faith, and, those who we notice have made a particular impact are awarded with a sticker, wrist band or even a certificate.
