Pastoral life day to day
Pastoral life at the high school is reflected more in everyday attitudes than in strict religious practice.
We look for ways to broaden young people’s horizons for reflection and personal growth, alongside their introduction to the world of work:
- mutual support initiatives (collections within the school)
- openness to the world through meeting witnesses.
Passing on the faith
Pastoral life supports high school pupils who wish to prepare to receive a sacrament:
- Baptism
- First Communion
- Confirmation
This preparation is tailored to each pupil, according to the constraints of their timetable, particularly work placements.

Several initiatives and events mark the year
