What are we learning about?

For many years we have participated in a Passing of the Light Ceremony, a way of handing the student leadership on to the next generation. This week staff and students have participated in our very first Cornerstone Ceremony.

So that we could remain Covid safe, we were challenged to create a different experience. We knew we would be outside so we had lots of space. A few students desperately wanted to use dance to express themselves and created a  liturgical dance. 

The song we used was from Owl City “In Christ Alone”

It reflects the scripture Isaiah 28:16, "Therefore this says the Lord God: 'Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation.'

Year 6 students laid a smooth flat stone on the ground and Year 5 placed a smaller one on top. This was to symbolise that we use the strength and balance of those who went before us to be the best leaders we can be.

Jesus is our strength and our cornerstone. We do all things through Him.  It is certainly how I try to lead and live my life.

Many blessings to all of our families for the rest of 2021.  May 2022 bring much joy and peace to you all. 

God bless,
