Mission
Laudato si’ Week
This week we will celebrate Laudato Si’ Week by setting challenges that encourage us all to care for our common home – earth. Pope Francis has called for global dialogue in his letter, Laudato si’, that he addressed to ‘every person living on this planet’. Our daily actions and decisions have an impact on the environment, so in week 6 we will be challenged to make better decisions.
Masses
Gathering as a community to participate in Mass is central to being Catholic. As a Catholic School, we provide opportunities for students and staff to participate in Masses, regardless of their own faith background or none. Therefore, each House will join with another, to celebrate a House Mass during one of their timetabled Assembly times in Term 2 or Term 3.
Each Religious Education class will also cohost a Wednesday morning Mass at 8am in our chapel. This Mass occurs during term time and is a Parish Mass, so it is open to all. The Mass finishes before the 8.40am bell. Religious Education teachers will email a notice to families prior to their allocated Mass, and we encourage attendance. Upcoming Masses will be hosted by our Senior students.
