Catholic Life and Reflection
Catholic Life and Reflection
Whole school Mass, with 300+ kids, was a blessing. They knelt, they sang, they responded. They understood what it meant to wait in silence, receive the blessing and Eucharist and watch Father’s rather amusing Homily video in a respectful way. They sang the Aboriginal Our Father with passion and conviction.
The gospel was the Emmaus story which we have been focused on this year. At the end of the Mass, I was able to say to the children that the Emmaus story is who we are as a school. We walk together. We listen, as the disciples on the road did, we talk, we share meals. I thanked the staff for their commitment to supporting and guiding the faith of each student. I thanked the leadership team for their constant support of my role and my growth.
So now, I thank you. Thank you for letting us grow the faith of each of your children. Thank you for trusting us to help them understand the importance of faith in their life. Thank you for your continuing prayers and support.
What Students are Learning About
This is Harry from Kinder Blue. In preparation for Advent and Christmas Kinder has reflected on the birth of Jesus. Harry drew this amazing picture. To me it shows an understanding of the importance of the life and death of Jesus and how they are intricately connected. Thank you Harry!
God bless and go gently.
