Schools

Social Justice Week 2018 runs from September 9-15 and will focus on disability and inclusion. The title of the resources is Enabling Communities: Everyone has a part to play. 

The Caritas resources for Lent 2019 will be coming soon.

The Caritas Challenge is an annual event for schools and youth groups around New Zealand to demonstrate solidarity with those living with poverty or injustice.

Thank you to all the students and teachers that participated in Justice Leadership Days in 2018 and made them such a great success. We are looking forward to meeting more future social justice leaders in 2019!

Caritas produces a variety of high quality resources for both primary and secondary schools each year, particularly for Lent and Social Justice Week.

Social justice is the promotion of just societies and treatment of individuals and communities based on the belief that we each possess an innate human dignity.

Each year since 2007 the New Zealand Catholic Primary Principals' Association (NZCPPA) have partnered with Caritas to run a Mufti Mania day, building solidarity through raising money for poor and vulnerable communities.

Well done to all the students who entered the SINGout4JUSTICE song writing competition this year. More than 120 students participated and impressed the judges with their skills in both composition and performance.

We are please to announce the following winners for 2018...
