Lent 

As we begin the season of Lent, our students are learning about this special time in the Christian calendar. Lent is the 40 days leading up to Easter and is a time for reflection, prayer, and making positive choices. In class, we have been talking about how Lent can be a time to grow by showing kindness, helping others, and thinking about ways we can be more loving and thoughtful each day.

 

We encourage families to continue these conversations at home, perhaps by choosing a small act of kindness to focus on together during this season.

💜 Project Compassion💜

Our school community is proud to support Project Compassion, the Lenten fundraising campaign of Caritas Australia. Through this initiative, students learn about justice, empathy and global responsibility while raising funds to support vulnerable communities in Australia and around the world. Project Compassion shares real-life stories of resilience and hope, reminding us that even small acts of generosity can make a powerful difference in the lives of others.
