Amazing things happen here

Welcome from our Headteacher

Welcome to St Patrick’s RC High School. I am proud and privileged to be the Headteacher of such a dynamic, high-achieving and forward-thinking school that puts Jesus Christ at the heart of everything we do.

We are guided in our work by our strong Catholic ethos, based on the Gospel Values, which drives us to be the very best we can be, using our God-given talents and gifts.

It is our mission to ensure that children experience a truly great Catholic education that enables them to flourish academically and shine personally, preparing them for a happy and successful adult life.

Last week our Bronze Duke of Edinburghs Award participants completed their expedition, walking from Rivington to Bibbys Farm Campsite. Over the two days, students navigated their routes using maps and compasses, carried all their own equipment, and worked together to overcome the challenges of the expedition. Throughout the weekend, students demonstrated excellent resilience, teamwork and determination. Despite the physical challenge of carrying heavy rucksacks and walking several kilometres across varied terrain, they supported one another, remained positive and developed valuable outdoor skills. At the campsite, pupils pitched their own tents, cooked their evening meals on camping stoves and took responsibility for looking after themselves and their equipment. The expedition was a fantastic opportunity for students to build resilience, independence and problem-solving skills while enjoying the beautiful countryside. Staff were incredibly proud of the maturity, perseverance and positive attitude shown by every participant. A huge thank you goes to all the staff who gave up their time to support the expedition and help make it such a successful and enjoyable experience. We wish all of our Bronze participants the very best of luck in going on to complete both silver and gold.Image attachmentImage attachment+Image attachment

Becoming the best versions of ourselves

"Spiritual life in school helps me a lot. I like the time to reflect in our chapel on Wednesday
lunchtimes- it is a quiet place that helps me to think about my actions and my faith. You can help the school in so many ways from helping in clubs like Faith in Action to just doing little things to help people and show love. It just makes me feel happy to do the best I can for everyone and the school."

Sochima - Year 7

"Teachers are always supportive in lessons and make sure that they do what they can to help you with any problems or difficulties you have to make sure you can complete the work to the best of our ability."

Nathaniel - Year 8

“I have really enjoyed representing the School as part of the football team. I’ve made new friends that go beyond the football pitch. Every match brings new challenges, but it is all worth it when we work together and improve.”

Vincenzo - Year 9

"St Patrick's is a faithful school that consistently offers assistance when required. I think it is fantastic that this school hosts prayers every Wednesday that anyone is welcome to attend. Additionally, the school has a group called Faith in Action which is a community of kind hearted people who are willing to donate their time to help the school's faith grow."

Carina - Year 10

"Being a part of the school’s Faith In Action group, I have been able to strengthen my faith and support the faith of my peers; I have become more resilient in my own life and in my learning and I have been able to serve my school and local community with pride. I have truly become the best version of myself"

Betws - Year 11

"The staff are amazing, not only achieving the St. Patrick's standards, but going beyond the everyday to make our full potential possible and our lives happier.
There are many co-curricular activities to delve into in our vast catalogue here at St. Pats, and the pupils can venture into new interests, shaping their character."

Dayson - Year 11
