Mass is held weekly on a Friday at 12:30pm and is open to anyone in our school community to attend. We also have Year group Masses throughout the year and our worship choir and musicians are fully involved in performing the hymns and responses. The Year 11Leavers’ Mass is also celebrated to give thanks for all our students, staff members and parents who have worked hard over the last 5 years to achieve excellence.​ ​ In addition to weekly Mass, feast days, such as the feast of St. Michael, are celebrated. During Advent and Lent, the sacrament of Reconciliation is offered by arrangement with our local priests and the Marian procession through the streets of our town is a beautiful reminder of our Catholic identity in venerating and paying respect to Mary our Mother.​​ Regarding other aspects of sacramental life, the academy supports students that are undergoing preparation for the sacrament of Confirmation in our local parishes. We encourage our pupils and parents to connect with our local parish communities and our pupils are regularly involved in supporting the church choir and leading the Stations of the Cross for the parishioners who attend Mass.​ ​We have a series of opportunities for our pupils to participate in school Masses.​ - Weekly form Mass​ - Year group Mass each term​ - Marian procession​ - Parish visits​ - Stations of the Cross at Holy Rosary Church​ - Year 11 Leavers Mass ### Catholic Life - [Our Faith](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/our-faith/mission-statement) - [Catholic Life and Mission](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/catholic-life-and-mission/virtues-and-catholic-social-teaching) - [Collective Worship](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/prayer-and-liturgy-policy) - [Prayer and Liturgy Policy](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/prayer-and-liturgy-policy) - [Prayer Life and Routines](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/prayer-life-and-routines) - [School Mass](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/school-mass) - [Prayer Spaces](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/prayer-spaces) - [Celebration of the Word](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/celebration-of-the-word) - [Developing Spiritual Literacy and Understanding](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/developing-spiritual-literacy-and-understanding) - [Staff CPD](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/collective-worship-new/staff-cpd) - [Religious Education](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/catholic-life/religious-education) ![St Michael’s Catholic Academy](https://files.schudio.com/st-michael-s-catholic-academy-3/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### St Michael’s Catholic Academy Beamish Road Billingham Stockton-On-Tees TS23 3DX (01642) 870003 - [Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/bhcet.org.uk) - [BHCET Trust Website](https://bhcet.org.uk/) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stmichaelscatholicacademybillingham/) - [X](https://twitter.com/StMBillingham) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/stmichaelscatholicacademy/) ### Translation © Copyright 2025–2026 St Michael’s Catholic Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stmichaels.bhcet.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
