Today was a truly special day at St William’s Catholic Academy as we welcomed Bishop Stephen to bless our newly renewed prayer garden, Caden’s Patch – Our Peaceful Place. This beautiful space, deeply rooted in memory and faith, is now a haven for prayer, reflection, and peace for our entire school community.

We give heartfelt thanks for the legacy of Father Caden and celebrate the new life this garden brings. Its message, “Rooted in Faith, Growing in Peace,” reminds us of the importance of caring for creation and growing together in God’s love.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this day so meaningful. May this garden continue to inspire us all to seek peace, nurture faith, and cherish the beauty of God’s world.
