St Finian's Catholic Primary School The Ridge, Cold Ash, Berkshire, RG18 9HU St Finian’s has been caring for local children and teaching them in the Catholic faith for generations. The Franciscan Missionaries of Mary first started St Finian’s convent here on this wonderful site in 1915 and our sisters have lived and worked alongside the school ever since. Sadly, their Trustees can’t sustain the convent here any longer. We have to move on, the property will be sold and a new school must be built. That’s why our community needs to invest in the future of our children now so the next chapter can begin and the family of St Finian’s can journey on together, learning and living the Christian values of faith, love and justice. Please support our wonderful Community in the various events they have planned to raise the £210,000 we need for our new school. You can donate directly, make a pledge or sponsor one of our events.
