Catholic Schools: Called to be a Family of Families
From 21-26 August 2018, families and others from all over the world will gather in Dublin to celebrate their lives together, to share their experiences from different parts of the world, to reflect on the different challenges they face and to grow together in faith. This event presents a special opportunity for school families to not only celebrate the fact that parents are the primary educators of their children, but also the vital role that Catholic schools play in assisting parents in their duty to raise their children.

In partnership with World Meeting of Families 2018, the Catholic Schools Week Steering Committee has developed a one year catechetical programme for Catholic primary and post-primary schools. The theme for this programme is Catholic Schools: Called to be a Family of Families. The programme invites Catholic schools to reflect on and to celebrate the relationship that exists between home, school and parish through participation in four sub-themed catechetical moments. Catholic Schools Week 2018 will run in the same format as previous years but there is one important distinction. In 2018, Catholic Schools Week will be the high point of the primary and post-primary school catechetical programme. The theme for Catholic Schools Week 2018 is Catholic Schools: Families of Faith.As usual, School Resources will be made available in due course via: http://www.cath

Moment Two Families of Faith (Catholic Schools Week 2018)
Catholic Schools Week 2018 will run in the same format
as previous years but there is one important distinction.
In 2018, Catholic Schools Week will be the high point of
the year-long catechetical programme. The resources
for Catholic Schools Week 2018 aim to encourage
Catholic school communities to reflect on the fact that
our school family is a ‘family of families’. As in previous
years, each day of Catholic Schools Week 2018 has a
theme and a correlating resource for either junior or
senior cycle: Monday: Our Family at Home; Tuesday:
Our School Family; Wednesday: Intergeneration
Education; Thursday: Our Parish Family; Friday: Our
World Family.
