Parish Restoration Fund
In 2032, our beautiful Parish Church will celebrate it's 200th anniversary! Please support our fundraising effort to restore the building of St Patrick’s Church in time for this special event.
We have hosted the Parish Summer Fair for the last two years and it is always such a wonderful event to gather together parishioners and families for a day of fun, friendship and fundraising.
We are looking forward to taking part in the annual Parish Christmas Fair in November too.

Mission & Identity Directive 2: Catholic schools are part of the mission of the Church. St Patrick's is part of a bigger family of faith. We have an important role within the parish of Holy Redeemer and in the Catholic Church. Community & Cooperation Directive 7: Catholic Schools should work together. St Patrick's school welcomes others and works with our family of schools. We can help others and know we can ask for help. Religious Education Directive 20: Religious Education is in the centre of our curriculum. RE lessons are very important and help us to understand Catholic faith and values. We think about the virtues and Catholic Social Teaching in other lessons too and how they can help us think about topics in art, music, history etc. Learning & Formation Directive 13: All staff are expected to keep learning about Catholic education. Teachers also learn and grow in their faith, just like children do. Relationships & Respect Directive 24: We use special resources for teaching Personal Development and Ten Ten. We teach lessons with love and respect, and remember the Catholic values important to us. |
Cathedral |
Cathedral Service Times – Diocese of Leeds Leeds Cathedral is one of the finest Catholic Cathedrals in England. Dedicated to Saint Anne, the mother of Our Lady, the Cathedral is situated in the heart of Leeds city centre. The Cathedral is a place of silence and prayer which provides a refuge from the activity of one of Britain’s busiest cities. This atmosphere of peace has grown through the daily celebration of the Liturgy, and every afternoon there is silent Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament. This sense of God’s peaceful presence is the Cathedral’s chief glory. |
