Today is World Catholic Education Day!
Lakeland Catholic celebrates the sacred mission of Catholic education - where faith is lived, truth is boldly upheld, and Christ is the centre of all we do.
We give thanks for the gift of publicly funded Catholic education, where students are formed in mind, body, and spirit.
Lakeland Catholic prays for all students, staff, families, and leaders who witness the Gospel each day through teaching, learning, and service.
May the Holy Spirit continue to guide our schools in wisdom, grace, and truth.
At Lakeland Catholic, our number one priority is living out our Catholic Christian identity. During this week’s Administrators Meeting, our school leaders gathered to strengthen their own faith formation - because guiding students in faith starts with leading by example.
