Celebrating St. Margaret of Scotland

As we approach the feast day of our patron saint, St Margaret of Scotland, on 16th November, we celebrate a woman whose faith shaped her life of service. A queen, wife and mother who lived in the eleventh century, Margaret encouraged education, nurtured faith and generously cared for people experiencing poverty and illness. She used her position to improve the lives of others, showing her love for God through practical acts of kindness.

Our four pillars of Knowledge, Faith, Community and Compassion reflect St Margaret’s charisms: her love of learning, devotion to God, commitment to bringing people together and care for those in need. Her example invites each of us to live these pillars through what we say and what we do—speaking kindly, learning with curiosity, including others and offering help generously. As a school community, may we follow St Margaret’s example by recognising the dignity of every person and making God’s love visible in our everyday actions.

Let us Pray,
