Laudato Si'

Laudato Si’ is an encyclical written by Pope Francis, it was published on the 18 June 2015. Encyclicals are open letters written by the pope.

Laudato Si’ discusses the damage being inflicted on the Earth by humans and calls on ‘every person living on this planet’ to make urgent changes to our lifestyles and how we consume energy in order to protect the planet.

It deals with many environmental issues including:

pollution 

climate change

water

loss of biodiversity

decline in the quality of human life.

In his letter Pope Francis implores us to work together to create a better world for future generations and asks us to make the necessary changes in our lives in order to take care of, respect and value our ‘common home’.

In 2021-2022 our school wrote pledges to listen and respond to the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor.

We are committed to play our part to protect our common home- Earth through the focussed Catholic Social Teaching principles.
