\"\"Primary 7 pupils gathered in Our Lady of Good Aid Cathedral on the evening of 22nd June to celebrate their Leavers\u2019 Mass and Graduation. In his homily, Fr Mark spoke of the children being at an important crossroads in their lives and encouraged them to have the courage to follow Jesus in the years ahead. The music was led beautifully by the school choir, accompanied by Mr John Pitcathley on the organ.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the graduation ceremony, Mr Young encouraged the children not to waste their time and energy either trying to stand out or fit in, but to discover the unique person God has created them to be and learn to be happy and content in their own skin. This was followed by the presentation of graduation bags containing certificate, hoodie, mortar board, Pope Francis Faith Award and high school tie before awards for Academic Excellence, Sportsmanship, Citizenship and Wider Achievement were announced.<\/span><\/p>\n

The children rounded off the occasion with a specially written song to the tune of \u2018I\u2019m a believer\u2019. There was then time for photographs and socialising in the cathedral grounds, including mortar boards being ceremoniously thrown up into the air.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cathedral school and parish communities wish all of this year\u2019s Primary 7 pupils every success in the future.\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n
