We celebrate the feast day of St Joseph the Worker at St Mark's. None of his words are recorded in the Gospels but he was there quietly supporting Mary and raising Jesus. Quiet, but a hard and dedicated worker. We pray for all those workers, especially in our school community. pic.twitter.com/ZNNODfOj3F

Our Year 10 football team secured a hard fought 1-0 victory against St Martin's school in the semi-final of the Essex Cup. A very tight game was decided by Shane's decisive goal. With stand out performances from Shane and Stas. #OnlyOneSaintInTheFinal #StMarkscelebrates pic.twitter.com/VWkct6qier

All at St Mark's school remembers Pope Francis through our daily prayers, assemblies this week and a Requiem Mass. We give thanks for his papacy and ask God that we may continue his legacy of supporting the poor and marginalised. Rest in Peace, Pope Francis. pic.twitter.com/lX5JER6Q20
