Nicholas Breakspear is the only English Pope. We are proud to be a papal School. Today, white smoke from the Sistine Chapel signalled the appointment of a new pope. We pray for Pope Leo XIV, who will lead the Church in these challenging times and build a better world. God Bless. pic.twitter.com/gMTjDz8cUc— Nicholas Breakspear (@NBS_Herts) May 8, 2025
