Catholic Identity

STUDENT OF THE WEEK - CATHOLIC VALUE AWARD

This week our Saint Hero is Pope John XXIII  who displayed the value of Serenity.  Next week's Saint Hero will be St Frances Xavier Cabrini who displayed the value of Generosity. We encourage you to discuss each Saint and their value with your child/ren, helping them to learn how they can live out our Christian values. 

WORLD CHILDREN'S DAY

In his Angelus address last December, Pope Francis announced that the Church will celebrate its first World Children’s Day on May 25-26. This event invites us to reflect on the kind of world we want to pass on to the next generation. Together, we can give them a legacy of hope.

“Like Jesus, we want to put children at the center and care for them,” Pope Francis December 23.
