Sacred Heart Primary School
Prep - 2 Family Faith Night
Thank you to all the families who joined us for our Family Faith Night. It was wonderful to come together as a community to explore ways we can nurture and grow faith within our homes.
We were privileged to have Carlie Anderson present on the evening. Carlie highlighted the importance of knowing where to find high-quality faith resources, demonstrated practical ways to use them, and shared how small, simple changes to everyday family life can help make faith more visible, meaningful and "lived" within the home.
While parents participated in the presentation, our wonderful Prep, Year 1 and Year 2 teachers led the students in meditative prayer, singing and faith-filled activities. The children thoroughly enjoyed this special time together.
Each student also received a prayer bag to take home. These bags include Bible stories and other resources designed to support family conversations, prayer and faith experiences at home, building on many of the ideas and suggestions Carlie shared throughout the evening.
