St Wilfrid's Catholic School

St Wilfrid’s provides a strong Catholic secondary education, which is enhanced by our close relationship with local parishes and the wider Catholic community. Our vision, in accordance with Church teaching, is to ensure that students experience their faith enveloped in the triangle of trust created between the home, school and parish. We provide opportunities for pastoral care, including youth clubs, weekly Mass and daily prayer to mention just a few. Our aim in conjunction with our Parish Communities is to be the spiritual and educational link for all local parishioners.  Our ability to work alongside our communities is enhanced by the strong religious relationship with the parish priest and its supporting network.
