What Students are Learning About
This Sunday we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost, the birth of our church. Students across the school have been reflecting on the scripture from Acts 2:1 – 13. Year One have created a beautiful display showing their understanding of the scripture. Year 6, as part of Confirmation preparation, are working on this Scripture. By looking closely at the scripture, using the Read with a Pencil strategy, they identify key words, questions they may have and important parts of the structure. They also use a map to help them understand where all of the people in the story had travelled from.
What Teachers are Learning About
3 Maroon teacher, Louise Osborne-Goldsbrough, and myself will be attending the Currents of Grace conference next week. It is an opportunity to pray and connect with other education systems across the country. We have chosen two pathways, leadership and mission. We are excited to learn more about our role in this area and where our church is headed.
Catholic Life and Reflection
We live a blessed life. I am grateful and to quote Meryl Streep “That is all.”
May God bless you,
And keep you.
Cause his face to shine on you,
And have mercy on you.
Turn his countenance to you,
And give you peace.
(Parish Blessing Song)
Philippians 4:19-21 (NRSV)
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
God bless,
Stephanie Stewart
