We were very privileged to take an amazing group of Sixth Form students to Lourdes this summer, joining the Salford Diocesan pilgrimage in this the 186th year since Our Lady first appeared to Bernadette.

From their arrival at the airport, where they received their first duties, to their return to Manchester they were fantastic ambassadors for their families, our College and young people in general.

They interacted with and supported other pilgrims and volunteers so cheerfully, compassionately and generously, Mrs Hibbert and I could not have been more proud. Every opportunity they got to develop on their faith journey was seized with both hands. Every task that was set for them they undertook with a happy heart, and regardless of what we were doing we had so much fun. They even dazzled at the fancy dress party in their fabulous Disney creations!!
