Thank You Father David

British Values, RE, RE, RRSA and British Values

We were delighted to attend the solemn mass to say an enormous ‘Thank You’ to Father David in recognition of 26 years magnificent service to our community. He has been an incredible friend of our school and we send all of our love to him. A special occasion befitting of a very special man. Please also enjoy the tribute from the Barnsley Chronicle. We shall miss Father David incredibly and wish him the very best in his well earned retirement.
