Learning and Teaching
Learning Space 1 Seniors
The Learning Space 1 Seniors have commenced their Term 2 concept on Connections. We have been building on our understanding of God as the Trinity.
Students have been making connections when we are making the sign of the cross that we are naming our God "The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit". This is a sign of faith. By this action we prepare ourselves to pray to God, by recognising that we pray to the Father who created us, the Son who walked among us and the Spirit who guides us in our daily lives. By this action we recall the unity and love within this connection.
Students were invited through the creation of prayer to share and give thanks to God as the Trinity in their own way, students are then going to be using these personalised prayers to lead and guide their peers through prayer in our Morning Gatherings.
