Religious Education with Miss Murdock
Sacrament of Confirmation
This week, we celebrate a very special moment in the faith journey of our Year 6 students as they received the Sacrament of Confirmation. On Wednesday evening, they were sealed with the Holy Spirit in a beautiful and reverent ceremony. We keep them in our prayers, asking that they continue to grow in faith and feel the presence of Jesus in their lives.
St Vincent De Paul Winter Appeal
This Friday is our PJ Day! Students are invited to come to school in their pyjamas, dressing gowns, and slippers (please remember to pack runners and a coat for outside play). We ask for a gold coin donation, with all funds going towards the Vinnies Winter Appeal. We are also collecting new warm winter items (such as blankets, socks, gloves, and beanies) up until Thursday of Week 10. These donations help support those who are struggling during the colder months, and we are proud to support the great work of Vinnies in our community.
Making Jesus Real Groups
Last Friday, we launched our first Make Jesus Real (MJR) groups for the year. These multi-grade sessions provide students with the opportunity to connect as a faith community. Our focus was on the theme of Pilgrims of Hope. Students enjoyed creating “Pilgrims of Hope” postcards with messages and drawings of hope, which are now displayed around the school as a reminder to keep spreading hope on our journey together.
