Faith and Wellbeing Assistant Principal's Report

Year 11 Youth Ministry at St Elizabeth’s Primary School

On Friday 7 September 2018 the Year 11 Youth Ministry class facilitated the Grade 5 and 6 Reflection Day atSt Elizabeth’s Primary School.  The students ran a range of activities focusing on different aspects of Church Teaching on Social Justice.  The day concluded with a Prayer Service in the Parish Church.

The students and staff at St Elizabeth’s enjoyed the day and we are very grateful to Mr Nathan who attended and assisted the students on the day.

Year 8 and 9 Assemblies

Over the last few weeks we have had a predominantly student run Year level Assembly for Year 8 and later for Year 9 students.  It was fantastic to see students sharing with their Year level cohort some reflections on the year so far, and some talented musicians entertaining us. A big thank you also to Ms Mish McKay for putting together a great slide show pictorial reflection, which the students really enjoyed.

Aged Care and Soup Kitchen Visits

The last couple of weeks we have had students on two occasions attend the Regis Village Aged Care facility and on one occasion the Soup Kitchen.  It is such a gift to see our students reaching out to others.  A big thank you to the generous staff who have assisted our students to be able to live out our Christian call to service.
