St Roch's Parish Primary School 
A prayer for Pentecost:
Loving God, as we celebrate Pentecost,
we thank you for the gift of your Holy Spirit.
Just as you sent the Spirit like a rushing wind and tongues of fire to the early disciples,
we ask you to pour out Your Spirit upon our school community.
Breathe into us a renewed sense of purpose, energy, and joy.
Grant our students the curiosity to learn and the courage to stand up for what is right.
Empower all in our school community with kindness and compassion.
Amen
Family Faith Formation: Preps in Pyjamas!
How special it was to welcome our Prep children and their parents to our well-loved faith formation night ‘Preps in Pyjamas’. A wonderful evening was shared with an exploration of different ways that we can pray to God. The Prep students experienced making a‘God’s Eye', reading the scripture story of the Good Shepherd and also creating prayers/candles to use at home for prayer.
A particular highlight was reflecting on how we can show gratitude to God for the good things in our life, this is something families can do every night together!
A special thank you to Alex Granland, Mia McKenzie-McHarg, Alison Swift, Angie Mastoras and Nadine Bolton for supporting this great night.
