To foster a sense of mission and purpose, each Head of Year works with their year group to create a 'Year Group Identity'. The identities are shaped on the lives of transformational saints, who lived their lives following a set of values and an ambition to make their communities better.
Heads of Year will reference the Year Group Identity during every assembly. The pinnacle of the year is the Feast Day. On this day, the year group will celebrate Mass at The Annunciation, and then have an educational input from their year group charity and a fund and awareness raising activity. The planning for the day is lead by the year group Faith in Action team.
