All Saints' Day & All Souls' Day

1st November & 2nd November

Silly Sock Day for Catholic Mission

 

"How can we keep from speaking?"

A big thank you to all the students and staff who rescued their 'odd socks' for a great cause!  We raised another fantastic amount of $86 to add to our previous $92 (from Crazy Hair Day).  Students across Australia have learnt about the missionary work of the Good Shepherd Sisters in Thailand who, through their Kindergarten Centre, are bringing about generational change to some of the poorest communities in Bangkok.  The money raised will be sent to these Sisters to assist with essential resources for their Kindergarten Centre.

Prayer Reflection - World Teachers' Day 2021

Last Friday, our School Captains, Ella & William, together with Prefects, Monique & Chase read the following prayer to our wonderful teachers at St Joseph's Primary School.

“…Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)

 

Dear God,

We pray that you would fill every teacher with your great courage and passion for this calling. Give them a heart shield to stand against negativity, to be able to withstand the obstacles and pressures of the day with stamina and grace. We ask for your fresh peace and power for every day. We believe that you are greater than whatever we may face and ask that you would surround the classrooms in your blessings each day. We pray that you give each teacher the boldness and courage to face even the toughest challenges, with the confidence and calmness that can only come from your Holy Spirit.

In Jesus’ Name,

Amen.

 

God bless,
