Dear Parents,

This week, we focus on Reconciliation Week where we highlight the theme of “Now more than ever!”

National Reconciliation Week (NRW) is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

This highlights the great need for RESPECT

…Care and respect for country following the footsteps of our Indigenous first people for 60,000 years.

… Care and respect for our Indigenous people and the need for truth, treaty and voice.

… Care and respect for each other and the need to eliminate racism and promote inclusive, respectful communities all over our great Southern Land.

… Care and respect for self and the need for self care and connection to others.

…. Care and respect for the stolen generation and subsequent generations.

May we always hold, respect and honour the land our school is situated on and promote inclusivity, respect and belonging. 

We explore how this all fits into Laudato Si’ Week, highlighting the need to take action individually and collectively by ‘listening and journeying together’. Listening and journeying are integral components of the ecological conversion that Pope Francis calls each one of us to. 

We are proud of all we are doing in our school to promote, highlight and respect our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and ensure our current generation of students will always respect and celebrate our First Nations people. 

Twilight open day

We invite all of our community to the twilight open night this Wednesday 29th from 5pm to 6.30pm.

The cafe will be open and we will conduct tours of our wonderful school. Please promote the event and invite your friends and any community members.

We have our parent social night coming up so come along, support our wonderful school and have a great night out

We also invite our community to the celebration of the Sacrament of First Eucharist this Sunday at 10 am at Hastings.

Our theme for this week is Kindness and using the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Have a look at the slide show below for ways to spread loving kindness throughout your week.

Yours in Partnership,
