A WIRRAL school is celebrating its 60th anniversary.
Our Lady of Pity RC Primary School in Greasby celebrated its 60th anniversary with a mass held at Our Lady of Pity RC Church, led by Fr Mike Lester.
The mass invited the whole school community, including representatives from the Diocese of Shrewsbury and Holy Family Catholic Multi Academy Trust to join together to celebrate 60 years of Our Lady of Pity.
Back at the school, children from across each year group headed to the school’s picturesque grounds to enjoy a picnic in the sunshine.
To mark the occasion, the school used a drone to capture a photograph of all pupils, spelling out ‘OLOP 60’.
At the end of the school day, Our Lady of Pity opened its doors to past colleagues, governors, and friends of the school for a special tour.
Head of school at Our Lady of Pity RC Primary School, Mrs Kathryn Dunne, said: “We have had an incredible day celebrating 60 years of Our Lady of Pity RC Primary School.
“Across our school’s long history, we have been a small part of our children’s educational journey.
“As a Catholic school, we are committed to our mission to ‘do everything with love’ and this is echoed in events and celebrations like this, where the whole school community comes together for a joyous occasion.”
