Dear Principal 

I hope you and all your staff and school community are well.

You will be aware that Catholic Schools’ Week is due to be celebrated from Sun 24^th to Sun 31^st January 2021 on the theme (Catholic Schools: Communities of Faith and  Resilience). 

Unfortunately, because of the current circumstances and restrictions, it is not possible this year to arrange our annual ‘Spirit of Catholic Education Award Ceremony’ during Catholic Schools’ Week.  However, to mark Catholic Schools’ Week 2021, I have decided to celebrate Mass online within St Mary’s University College on Thursday 28^th January at 12 noon with a particular focus on Catholic Schools as Communities of Faith, Learning, Love, Resilience and Hope.

School communities can join in with the online celebration via the St Mary’s University College webcam link at:

Finally, just to remind you the links to this year’s CSW resources are available at:

On behalf of the CSSS team, I would like to wish you and your school community an enjoyable and successful Catholic Schools’ Week as much as current circumstances permit. 

With warmest regards

Fr Edward McGee 

Director of the Down and Connor Catholic Schools’ Support Service
