Stop the sale of St Boniface caretaker's school house & the proposed closure of st Thomas
The Issue
St Boniface School has been the heart of our Salford parish for generations. Families have walked through its doors, and each wall tells a story of community, tradition, and educational excellence. It is not simply a school; it is a cherished landmark central to our community’s identity.
Now, there is an impending threat that St Boniface caretaker's school house, a testament to our shared history and educational legacy, may be sold. This sale would strip away not only a vital asset of the school but also a significant piece of our community's heritage and future.
The sale of the caretaker's school house would have profound impacts on St Boniface School and the wider Salford community. Not only would we lose a critical part of our school infrastructure, but the community would also lose a symbol of continuity and commitment to education. In a time where community cohesion is more important than ever, preserving these spaces that bind us together is crucial.
In Salford, St Boniface is more than a school; it is a symbol of our shared dreams and aspirations, providing a sense of belonging and a haven for future generations. We owe it to our children and grandchildren to ensure they also get to experience the warmth and community spirit that St Boniface embodies.
We urge the decision-makers to reconsider any plans to sell the caretaker’s school house. Instead, we propose that resources be channelled into its preservation as a historical site or a community centre that continues to serve our educational needs and community unity.
Join us in our fight to save this vital part of our community. Stand with us to protect not only a building but the legacy and future of St Boniface by signing this petition. Your signature can make a significant difference in ensuring this beacon of history and education remains in the heart of Salford for generations to come.
Stop the Sale of St Thomas’s Church – Save Our Community!
St Thomas’s Church in Salford is more than a building – it’s the heart of our community. For generations, it has been a place of worship, a safe space for families, and a hub for local events and support networks.
If the church is sold, we risk losing a vital lifeline for our community. Children, elderly residents, and vulnerable families will lose a space where they belong, and our neighborhood will lose a key part of its history and identity.
We cannot let this happen. Join us in demanding that St Thomas’s Church remains open and accessible to all. Let’s protect our community, our heritage, and the people who rely on it every day.
