TRANSCRIPT
Prayer for Lent God of all peoples and
nations, you accompany us on our Lenten journey.
Through the life and mission of your son, you give us the
gift of mercy. May we learn to walk your way of justice
and compassion with all your people. In a special way, we keep in mind the children, women and men around the
world who are most vulnerable to extreme poverty and injustice.
Bless our prayers, our fasting and our Lenten gifts to Project Compassion. “ASPIRE NOT TO HAVE
MORE, BUT TO BE MORE!”
HARMONY DAY-MARCH 21ST The theme of Harmony Day is ‘everyone belongs’, and encourages people to participate in their
community, respect cultural and religious diversity and
foster a sense of belonging for everyone. Children are asked to bring a light coloured t-shirt
to school—white or pastel
colour—on MONDAY 19TH MARCH. On March 19 and 20, the children will
then decorate them with images and
words about living in harmony. They
will then wear them to school on
Wednesday 21st March.
Dear Parents/Carers, Staff and Students, Yesterday we gathered to celebrate Catholic Education Week and the beginning of the school year. Fr Rene reminded us that even though there may be challenges, disappointments and worries throughout the year, Jesus is
with us always. Jesus is there in the good times and bad.
Today a small group of students attended the Catholic Education Week mass with Archbishop Denis Hart at St Patricks Cathedral. Over 1000 students were present to celebrate and give thanks for the great work that is done in our Catholic schools here in the Archdiocese of Melbourne. The theme of the mass was ‘Open new horizons for spreading joy’, which speaks of the wonder and hope that
education brings to all.
You may have noticed that your child’s teacher has had some days out of the classroom this term. This is so that they can take part in professional learning, which ensures that they are up-to-date with the latest improvements and initiatives in education. They also have time out of the classroom to complete assessment tasks on the children they are teaching. Rest assured, they leave a detailed program for the relief teacher to follow to ensure the
children’s learning is ongoing and without interruption.
Please keep the following children in your prayers as they prepare to receive the
Sacrament of Confirmation on April 20:
Holly, Stella, Jacob, Kevin L, Daniel Jacob, Steven, Lien, Ryan, Devaras, Frances, Isabella, Cassey,
Annie, Kevin D, Mary, Hilary, Hayden, Tich-Lam, Moada,
Sarah, Tim, Beatrize, Jack
Have a great week everyone. Brendan
