DEPUTY PRINCIPAL - Lize Privitera

Fan the Flame
Towards Plenary Assembly One October 2021
‘Anyone who welcomes one of these little children in my name, welcomes me;’
Mark 9:30-37
Our parishes, in particular, are challenged to renew the formation of children, young people and families who may not be strongly connected to the Church but who still have an ‘instinct for the faith’ which prompts them to seek the sacraments or engage in part with of the Church’s life.

Twenty-Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cycle B
Sunday, September 19, 2021
Mark 9:30-37
In next Sunday’s Gospel, we learn that some of Jesus’ first disciples argued about which of them was the greatest or the most important. Even they wanted to be famous! Jesus teaches them something surprising about what it means to be great in God’s eyes. Jesus teaches us in the Sunday Gospel that God does not care how popular we are. There is only one thing that is important in God’s view of us: Have we served others generously with love?
Term holidays are just around the corner! Take the time to get ready for those sunny days ahead and by spending your time in the garden, walking, riding or watching a movie together.
Hoping by now most of the students received a special mail drop from the Staff as well as a special bookmark provided by The Diocese of Sale Catholic Education Limited (DOSCEL).
Wishing all our students and their families a safe and relaxing next two weeks.
