Catholic Life & Reflection
As REC I want students and families to feel connected to their faith. When we are at school there are lots of ways we do this. As a whole school we pray together everyday and so do the staff. Each classroom has a prayer table with special objects and liturgical cloths. The Sacred Heart of Jesus is evident in the corridors and classrooms. We gather for liturgies.
When we are apart, it is a bit more challenging to be connected to our faith.
It has gladdened my heart this week to get several emails from students and staff sharing how children are expressing their faith at home. This week I would like to highlight some of those students.
Leo from Grade Two had this great response in relation to the book shared last week 'Norton and the Bear'.
The questions we wanted students to think about were:
- What does it mean to feel ‘unique’?
- Why do you think that Norton likes to dress differently?
Emma T from Grade 6 chose this part out of the Psalm 148 to draw my representation of it:
13 All creation, come praise
the name of the Lord.
Praise his name alone.
The glory of God is greater
than heaven and earth.
My main focus on my artwork was all the things God created.
Uasi in Year 4 Shared his response to Psalm 148.
And so did Erin in Year 4.
Year 3 were looking at the Last Supper and created their own versions.
Go gently, stay safe and well. God bless,
