RELIGIOUS EDUCATION REPORT with Mrs Deanna  David

Greetings and many blessings to you all. Here are some updates and resources that I feel will be of benefit to you.

Father’s Day Liturgy

Please keep an eye out for our very special Father’s Day liturgy which will be shared tomorrow (Thursday Week 8) with all the students as well as on Compass. You will see lots and lots of familiar faces, as well as hear some beautiful musicians and listen to some lovely readers.  Fr Sean has a really thought-provoking homily for us as well. We will remember St Joseph as a model father during the liturgy as well. 

Sacraments

Unfortunately all Sacraments are on hold due to the current pandemic. Once we know more about when these celebrations can recommence in some form, we will let you know. 

Month of Creation

Today is the beginning of the Month of Creation. We celebrated today with the Universal Prayer for Creation. Mrs David shared two links via each child’s Google Classroom this morning. The first link (made by Mrs David) was made first but is not as nice as the other link produced by staff at the Catholic Education Office. 

Digital To Know, Worship and Love books and Understanding Faith 

Your children’s class teacher should be posting work every so often linked to the Digital to Know Worship and Love texts. You don’t need to wait for a lesson to get online and have a look at this beautiful and useful resource.

Weekly Mass Online:

Many parishes are providing a live streaming of Sunday Mass so that we may all participate in the celebration of the Eucharist.
