As we embrace this post-pandemic period, the St Catherine’s story for every student begins the moment they walk through our Heyington Gates; a time when they are encouraged to be courageous, inquire, question, learn and contribute. This story tells of the shared passion for connecting, engaging, and participating, an opportunity for every student to create their own chapter.

As you unfold this edition of St Catherine’s News, you will understand the impact of our Towards 2025 Strategic Plan; our blueprint detailing how we inspire every St Catherine’s girl to be creative, independent, resilient, and bold in all that they pursue in the post-COVID world.
