Stations Of The Cross

The Senior students shared their interpretation of the Stations of the Cross with the school community on Tuesday afternoon, to bring the message of this most important liturgical time in the Christian calendar; the death of Jesus during Holy Week.

 

 

If you haven't had an opporutnity to view the various places around the school showcasing the students' and staff's own unique creations of the Stations of the Cross, I encourage you to take a wander around the school grounds or inside the junior building in the afternoon to view these. They have done an amazing job of bringing the message of Holy Week for everyone to engage in, learn and understand about the tyranny that Jesus experienced during this time.

 

 

Alleluia Day

Next term, we will be celebrating Easter, that occurs on the holidays, during our first week of Term 2 - Thursday 24th April at 9:00a.m in the school hall. Please join us for this most important liturgical celebration of the Risen Christ.

 

This special day will see our students complete a variety of Easter acitivities in multi-age groupings as well as participate in a KABOOM incursion whereby the students will take part in a variety of sporting acitivities at school.
