11 photographs from Special Mass to celebrate grandparents at St. Joseph’s Boys School in Derry

Catholic Schools Week was celebrated by Fr. Shaun Doherty with Mass in the oratory in St. Joseph’s Boys School on Wednesday afternoon when grandparents joined the students and teachers to mark the importance of grandparents in our lives.

A number of the students took part in the readings and Fr. Shaun spoke how family is so important in the home and the love of one’s grandparents plays a major role in developing us through our teenage years.

Here are some photographs from the celebration on January 21.
