Religious Education & Pastoral Care
Mrs Deb McDouall
Religious Education Coordinator
Our Mini Vinnies team have been kept busy this week as we focus on the work of Catholic Mission. Each year around October and November, every school in the Armidale Diocese raise funds and participate in activities based on social justice issues. This year we have had our "Free Hat" day on Wednesday, our "Crazy Hair" on Thursday and "Odd Sock" day on Friday. Thank you to everyone for supporting the students as they grow their awareness of the needs of others. The students managed to raise $172 for the week, we are extremely proud of their efforts and participation in each days activities. We will put the funds together with our profit from the Father's Day stall which will see a significant amount raised by our school community this year!
First Holy Communion
Please keep in your prayers the students preparing to receive the most blessed sacrament in First Holy Communion on Sunday 24 November:
Angus, Lucas, Blake, Piper, Preston, Jax and Ollie along with students from Barraba Central School.
Around the Classroom's
Students have been reflecting on types of prayers in the senior class whilst the junior classes have been exploring what a psalm is. They even had a go at writing their own!
Masses
Our final class mass for the year will be on Friday 6 December led by the wonderful students in K/1/2. As always, everyone is most welcome to come along and join us for this special time. Mass starts at 10.15am.
