Why are we called St. Cuthbert’s?

St. Cuthbert was a caring, unique individual and is often referred to as the Patron Saint of the North East. He healed the sick, proclaimed the Good News and will forever be remembered in his legacy for being a fantastic role-model. He had inspiring qualities such as determination, passion, dedication and commitment. Cuthbert was a globally famous Saint taking up the position of Bishop of Hexham and Newcastle. As to this day, Bishop Seamus Cunningham is filling his colossal shoes of being Bishop of our diocese. Cuthbert showed his spectacular loyalty and commitment when he healed the residents of Lindisfarne even when he was dying! Our school are proud to be named after this magnificent, unique, loyal and committed Saint, as he represents our schools Mission Statement.
