Religious Education

Term 2, Week 2

This Friday we will celebrate the special women in our lives with a Mother's Day Liturgy and craft activities in our learning spaces. The Celebrations will commence in the library at 2pm with our Liturgy. 

To make the Mother's Day Liturgy extra special we would like a photo of mum, nan or aunty so we can showcase these special ladies. PLEASE send in a photo for us to scan and return or email a photo to Sarah-Jane - scanham@arm.catholic.edu.au

 

Thank you in advance!

Wishing all the special ladies in our lives a very Happy Mother's Day this Sunday!

 

Our School Captains will attend the Catholic Schools Week Mass in Tamworth on Tuesday, 28th May with Mrs Long and Mrs Canham.

Message Stick Visit to St Joseph's and St Brigid's.

Message Stick Information 

"The purpose of the Message Stick visiting our schools and their associated parishes is twofold. Firstly, it is an opportunity to inform both the school and parish community of the upcoming CSNSW Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education Conference. We hope that its presence in each community might provide an opportunity for people to ask questions and generate some enthusiasm and interest around the conference. Secondly, it provides an opportunity for each community to engage in some cultural celebration and learning. We hope that this might occur at the local parish, within the school and even outside the gates of the school in the local community. The other wonderful outcome of the Message Stick visiting communities is that it provides a unique opportunity for our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and staff to feel great pride and for schools to celebrate the culturally rich contribution that they make to each of our schools."
