# St Francis of Assisi Group lead CAFOD assembly

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/cathedralprimaryschool/images/CatholicLifeoftheschool/CAFOD/CAFOD_2024.jpg)   20 February 2024

This afternoon, our St Francis of Assisi Group led a short whole school assembly about our Lent activities to raise money for CAFOD. CAFOD works to support people living in extreme poverty throughout the world. During Lent, our St Francis Group will lead us in a Big Lent Walk, a Brighten Up Spring Day and an Easter Egg raffle so that we can support the work of CAFOD.

[HERE ](https://cathedral.lancs.sch.uk/files/Prayer_and_Liturgy/Lent_parents_letter_2024.docx)is a letter that has been sent out to parents, outlining when these activities will take place.
