God's Story: The Good Samaritan

 

 

This week the Year 3 students will be learning about the story of The Good Samaritan.

 

This parable challenged the listeners at the time and still challenges us today. It calls those who follow Jesus to use their love, energy and possessions to help those in need.

 

Religion in Year 5 

 

This week in Year 5, students have been learning about the early Church in Australia and how Catholics had to defend their faith. They explored the concept of 'putting on God’s armour' and created shields illustrating items that help them stand strong in their faith.

Request for Old Baby Dolls – Baptism Unit

This term in the Junior School, our Religious Education lessons will focus on the Sacrament of Baptism. To help bring this topic to life, we would love to use baby dolls during our role-play and discussion activities.

If you have any old or unused baby dolls at home that you’d be happy to donate or lend, we’d be very grateful. Please place them in the basket in the Foundation area.

Thank you for your continued support!
