Practising our Catholic Faith at School
We celebrate our Faith in many ways during the day:
1. We say a prayer to start our day and before
meals. We thinking about people that we
want to pray for and share our intentions for God’s blessing.
2. We attend monthly assemblies, liturgies, and masses where we come together with other students to celebrate our faith, seasonal events (Christmas, Easter etc) and our successes as students in a Catholic School.
3. We learn about the Catholic virtues by reading and discussing stories about the life of Jesus.
4. We explore the curriculum in "In God's Image" through stories, activities and discussions.
5. We are encouraged to act in a way that is kind, loving, and supportive to others in our school community.

In love each one is unique and precious;
Each one has his or her place;
Each one receives and each one gives;
Each one has a grateful heart.
There are no more barriers;
Each delights in the other,
Each is a delight for the other
Because in each one is seen the face of God.
Drawn in to the Mystery of Jesus through the Gospel of John - Jean Vanier
