Jubilee Year 2025 Pilgrims of Hope
Every 25 years, the Catholic Church holds a Jubilee Year. All members of the global Church family are called to participate. It is a time to grow in our faith and prayer life; a time too to re-establish a proper relationship with God, with one another and with all creation.
On 24th December 2024, Pope Francis launched the latest Jubilee. The theme is ‘Pilgrims of Hope’. Pope Francis has called the global Church to celebrate the Jubilee together, with deep faith, lively hope, and active charity. Our scripture for our Launch Week will be the Gospel reading for the Sunday, from Luke 4, where Jesus makes it clear that his mission is to bring the justice and freedom of the Jubilee. Inspired by his example, we can share in his mission to create a world of justice, peace and love. In this very special year, we are all invited to journey together as pilgrims of hope, putting faith into action to build a better world for everyone.

Pilgrimage Walk
Our children and staff took part in a Pilgrimage Walk around the school grounds, responding and reflecting to stations created by the Chaplaincy Government Group.
Below is a video of the Pilgrimage Walk with the official Jubilee hymn playing to help you reflect on the meaning of this special year.
