Regards Mr M Haughton, Mount St Joseph School Chaplain. ([email protected]) Schoenstatt Retreats Over the course of the school year our R.E. department run numerous educational visits to a number of places of worship. One of these takes place at the Schoenstatt Shrine in Kearsley. All Year 7 forms have had the opportunity to visit the Shrine and take part in a variety of activities that are designed to bring them closer together and to work as a form. With the help of Father Reginald all Year 7 forms have enjoyed the experience and ensured that they have strengthened their bonds together as a form. Religious Education Trips Our Religious Education department have organised trips to various places of religious importance for Year Groups 7 - 10 to visit during 2017 including the Manchester Jewish Museum, St Mary’s R.C. Church the Hidden Gem and the Zakariyya Mosque. Whilst visiting these different places students will develop an awareness of the different faith communities in Bolton and Greater Manchester.

The school chaplaincy was established over two years ago with the aim of ensuring that all students were
able to make a contribution to the ethos of the school. We firmly believe that through the work and the

Learners, Believers and Friends”.
The school chaplaincy team consists of members from different year groups with upper school ensuring that they lead and pass
on the skills to the lower school chaplains. The chaplains meet on a regular basis to plan, prepare and evaluate the activities that
