St Columba’s has stood on Pont Street since 1884. A landmark of resilience, renewal and welcome for over 140 years. Proud of our history, and always looking forward.

Tom Stoppard, who sadly passed away recently, left us many timeless lines. One of the most moving comes from The Coast of Utopia: “Children are not the people of the future; they are people of the present.” A powerful reminder to value every life in the here and now.
