Dear Parents and Prospective Pupils
Dear Parents and Pupils
Welcome to Our Lady and St Patrick’s College, Knock. This information booklet gives you additional
information about the College and I hope you find it both informative and useful.
I trust that you will discover today that our College vision statement of ‘Excellence through Care’
is much more than just three words for us. It reflects the aspirations we have for each individual
child within our care; it reflects the pastoral care that we provide on a daily basis; and it reflects
the core values of our Catholic ethos. Our students, too, are taught to ‘CARE’ each and every day,
with a strong focus on Commitment, Attendance, Respect and Extra-curricular activities. Suffice to
say that we are exceptionally proud of our 1292 students and the many past pupils of our College
since 1985.
I have always believed that Our Lady and St Patrick’s College, Knock is unique; yes, we are
academically strong, but there is so much more to a student of Knock than his or her academic
profile. In the College every year, I see at first-hand a commitment to students’ extra-curricular
activities which promote the development of the ‘whole person’. I also see our students using ‘their
talents for the service of others’, quietly reflecting the College Mission Statement in their work with
many charities and community groups. It is this combination which will ensure that our students
are well prepared to make a positive contribution to society in the years ahead.
Should you choose to join our College, we look forward to welcoming you to #teamknock, where
our motivated students, supportive parents and committed staff all work together for the benefit
of our entire College community. You will find more information about the school on our website
at www.knock.co.uk.
My very best wishes to you and your family as you make this important decision to choose a new
school. I look forward to welcoming many of you to Our Lady and St Patrick’s College, Knock in
September 2020.
Yours sincerely
Deborah McLaughlin
