Education in Faith 

      Lord lead me from despair to hope, from fear to trust.

Lead me from hate to love, from war to peace.

     Let peace fill our beings, our world, and our universe.

 Amen

International Day of Peace:

International Day of Peace is celebrated on Sunday the 21st of September. The Purpose of this day is to reduce violence and to strengthen the ideals of peace around the world. The International Day of Peace isn't just about ending international conflicts. It is also about changing our behaviour towards each other and our environment. For example, we can try to bring peace to our personal lives by saying sorry and making peace with someone we know. Individual actions add up to great things when they are multiplied by millions of people all over the planet, and we can all contribute to making the world a more peaceful place.

School choir:

The choir meets every Monday at lunchtime and is facilitated by Amir from Experience Music. Amir will engage the children with a variety of styles of music including songs that the children can sing at mass, assemblies and whole school celebrations.  

CatholicCare Victoria:

CatholicCare Victoria assists people who are facing challenges. It is a great organisation that provides a range of child, family, and youth services, family relationship services, school counselling and pastoral care services, social housing, homelessness services, employment, and advocacy services across Victoria. 

The Carry-A-Can donation is a great way to assist those in need. This year, as a Catholic school community, you are invited to donate various canned foods and non-perishable food items to our Christmas hampers to support people in need. All donations can be left at the front office.

Class mass

Our next class mass will be held on Tuesday, September 17th, at 9.15am. The following classes will be celebrating mass: 5/6OS and 5/6MC. 5/6BZ, FAM, FLW and LAP. All parents and carers are invited to attend this celebration. 

As we end the term, I would like to extend my thanks and gratitude to all families.  Have a great break, and see you next term. God bless, and have a great week.
