Laudato Si and Sustainability
At St John the Baptist RC, we are always thinking of ways to look after our common home and show love to God's creation.


The children use their floor books to display their learning when answering Big Questions based on the environment .
Early Years love to explore the wonders of our Common Home in their continuous provision.

Caring for our Common Home in the curriculum:

Year 5 and 6 learned about the importance of recycling your waste. The children were amazed at how much we can re-use and take care of God's creation by thinking carefully about our own actions.

Our Laudato Si Centre
We were very lucky to have Bishop John Arnold visit us and St John the Baptist RC and bless our Laudato Si centre.
The centre is a quiet, peaceful place where children can be close with nature. The space provides children the opportunity flourish by learning all about gardening and how to grow your own fruit and vegetables. We love distributing what we have grown with our neighbours at Rochdale Soup Kitchen.
