St Gabriel the Archangel (Region 2) Public Speaking Competition – Painsley
We were proud to host our Trust Public Speaking Competition today at Painsley, and what a brilliant day it was.
Students from across the CMAT spoke with real confidence, courage and clarity, bringing this year’s theme – The St Gabriel Way: Confidence, Courage and Service – to life. From Key Stage 1 through to Sixth Form, the standard was exceptionally high, with thoughtful, powerful speeches throughout.
A huge thank you to our judges: Alex Foulkes (writer and alumni), Bridget Williams (Governor), and Margaret Yates OBE (Catholic Senior Executive Leader) for their time, expertise and support.
Well done to every student who took part: you represented your schools superbly. A fantastic celebration of oracy and student voice.👏

CAFOD Live Simply Award achieved! 🌍
After almost three years of hard work, we are so proud to have been awarded the CAFOD Live Simply Award following our assessment this week! The award recognises schools who live out their faith by living simply, sustainably and in solidarity with others. A huge highlight was our six pupils who met with the assessor—they were eloquent, thoughtful and reflective, explaining not just what we’ve done, but why we do it. Over the years, we have: Raised money for global causes like CAFOD’s toilet twinning Taken action locally through litter picking, growing and caring for our environment Built strong links with our parish, families and local community, including work with a local care home This has truly been a whole community effort.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey - what an achievement!

This remarkable contribution supports a truly worthwhile cause and reflects the values of commitment, compassion, and service to others that we are so proud to see in our students. Josh’s dedication and effort have made a genuine positive impact, and his achievement is an inspiration to us all.
