Religious Dimension

Last Friday we gathered as a whole school outside to celebrate the beginning of the school year mass. We asked God to bless us in all we do. As a symbol of the importance of faith to us, a student from each learning space processed in with the prayer candle from their learning space.

In 2020 over 300 local local ecumenical churches united to sing a blessing over Australia and it is my hope for you all as we begin this new year. The Blessing song is a part of a world wide movement and has been produced in many countries. 

The Lord bless you and keep you,

The Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you,

The Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.

Numbers 6:24 - 26
