Catholic Social teaching

Catholic Social teaching is rooted in scripture and includes statements and letters written by church leaders. It offers wisdom and insights on how to live the Gospel in today's world.

Jesus tells us to love God and our neighbours, especially our brothers and sisters living in poverty.  We use Catholic Social teaching to guide us at St Elizabeth's Catholic Primary School. 

We use resources from CAFOD and Caritas in action to support our learning across the curriculum and to support us as we strive to live out our Gospel values in our everyday lives and achieve fullness of life. 

The CAFOD principles we follow are below

 

 

Barbara from CAFOD visited our school to deliver some CST workshops across the school.  The children enjoyed hearing how they can apply catholic social teaching to their everyday lives.
