Cornerstones: Introduction to Catholic Social Justice Teaching

Over four Modules we will introduce you to the tradition of Catholic Social Teaching.  It is a long and well-established tradition, with a practice of listening to the needs of the people and the earth, and responding with a heart for justice and responsible action.  As you will be aware, a Catholic School is a learning environment suffused with justice and care for the earth
