Religious Education

What students are learning about

First Eucharist

This weekend students in Year 3 are receiving their First Holy Communion. Father Chung came to visit on Wednesday and he asked the students “Do you want to receive the Eucharist this weekend?”

“Why do you want to receive the body and blood?”

Beau responded ‘because we want to be more like Jesus and do what he does.”  Aarzah “because we want to be one with Jesus.”

Please continue to pray for all our students receiving the sacrament.

Saint Display

Year Six students are still working on their displays and Isabella in 6M put hers up in the front office.  Her saint was Mary MacKillop.

Catholic Life and Reflection

The first words of Pope Leo when he was introduced to the world were “Peace be with you”.  Also the words of Jesus to his disciples at his first appearance after His resurrection.  A simple yet powerful phrase but what does it really mean.  With the current situations world wide with aggression towards other countries we immediately go to these events.  Of course we should be praying for world peace but peace is not just the absence of war. Peace in our daily lives and local communities is the starting point.  

Let not our own hearts be troubled and spread peace as much as we can.

John 14:27

27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.
