What Students are Learning About

Kindergarten's prayer assembly focused on Saint John the apostle. Students learnt that Saint John is the patron saint of love, loyalty, friendship and authorship. They spoke about how they can love and be compassionate like Saint John was and why it is such an Honor he represents our school as he faithfully stood by Jesus in his darkest hour by the cross. 

Saint John was a man of love and determination; he was Jesus' beloved apostle. We feel privileged to be represented by someone so important to Jesus.

Catholic Life and Reflection

As we celebrate the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus now is the perfect time to contemplate God’s love.

Jesus loves us and His Sacred Heart shows us how we should love.  The heart of Jesus is so full of love that he shares his love and life with everyone.  Jesus showed his love when he died on the cross.

Jesus appeared to St Theresa of Avila in a vision and said to her: “I would create the universe again just to hear you say that you love me.”  That is how important we are to God.

God is love and he calls his people to love him and each other. 

St Paul tells us that love is patient and kind, it is not selfish our ill-mannered.  Imagine what our world would be like if everyone was always patient and kind and loved others.
