MINI VINNIES LITURGY
This autumn, on Thursday 24th September at 1:40pm, we will welcome a new group of Mini Vinnies who have volunteered their time to support the school in its approach to helping vulnerable people within our school and local community, as they “see, think and do.” Thank you to all the children who have put their names forward to join this special group at St Joseph’s School. We look forward to seeing the difference they will make throughout the year.
