Religious News: Thursday the 20 th of October.

This Sunday is World Mission Sunday. Each year, the second last Sunday of October is dedicated to World Mission Sunday. It offers us the opportunity to celebrate 200 years of Missions. Pope Francis, in his 2022 World Mission Sunday message, invites everyone to answer the call to be a missionary, sharing that “Mission is carried out together, not individually.”

“Socktober”

This coming Monday the 24 th of October, students are asked to come to school in their school uniform, with the addition of wearing socks in

a crazy way. Please bring a gold coin donation which we will forward on to Catholic Missions to assist in the goat-rearing farm in Ethiopia.
We will also be making our soccer balls. Please send clean, old socks and or rags to assist us with this activity.

Liturgies: Tomorrow our Grades Three and Four students will be leading our Liturgical Assembly at 2:30 in St Mary Mackillop Hall. The theme for our Liturgy is Justice. Catholic Social Justice teaches us that all people are made in the image of God. As God is love, we were created to love and be in a relationship with each other. Human dignity is upheld when each person’s needs are met and when he or she lives in harmony with others in a community that together pursues the common good. Catholic Social Justice teaches us to look at reality through the eyes of those who have been made poor by oppression and injustice. We do this when we join together to end poverty. 
During Term Four our students are reflecting on elements of Catholic Social Teaching and how can they make a difference.

Kind Regards,
