What Students Are Learning About

Year 1 have created another beautiful Lenten display.

Year 6 participated in the Journey with Jesus retreat day yesterday. It was run by CYSMA. They had an amazing experience lead by 3 youth workers.  Luke Maher, from Catholic Education, praised our students for their excellent behaviour but also for their deeply reflective answers and high level of participation. A huge thank you to Year 6 for showing the wider community what it means to be on earth the heart of God.

Catholic Life and Reflection

This week Ms Mac and Ms Wormald have been leading the staff in prayer. Today Ms Mac read out the prayer from St Theresa of Avila. 

Christ has no body but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which He looks
Compassion on this world,
Yours are the feet with which He walks to do good,
Yours are the hands, with which He blesses all the world.
Yours are the hands, yours are the feet,
Yours are the eyes, you are His body.
Christ has no body now but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he looks
compassion on this world.
Christ has no body now on earth but yours.

— St. Teresa of Ávila

 

This is a stunning version of the well known song.

 

As we walk through this season of Lent, keep these words close.

God bless,

Stepanie Stewart

Religous Education Coordinator
