At the Palmer Catholic Academy we are called to work together for the Common Good. We therefore chose charities that link with our RE Curriculum structure and points to our work with local, national and international communities.
Since the start of this Academic year the Academy has raised money for aid for the national disasters in Libya and Morocco and funds to support the MacMillan Support Trust. Further monies raised are also given to Diocean approved
During the Autumn Term, the Academy held a Day for Peace - whereby all staff and pupils said a unified prayer for peace throughout the day. There was the sale of white ribbons and the money raised was given to CAFOD Israeli Palestinian appeal.
