St Dominic – Adventurer Badge of Prayer (Appreciation of Nature Activity)
Yesterday afternoon, our Year 4 students excitedly began their journey towards earning the St Dominic Adventurer Badge of Prayer, focusing on the theme Appreciation of Nature. Their session took them outdoors, where the school field became a living classroom full of curiosity, discovery and wonder. Using their iPads, they took photos of plants, insects and anything interesting they could find in our natural environment.
The students enjoyed being outdoors and were enthusiastic about spotting different signs of life around them. Many commented on how much they noticed once they started looking closely, and there was a general sense of curiosity and calm as they explored.
This activity was a positive start to their badge journey, helping them pause, observe and appreciate the beauty of God’s creation around us. We look forward to our next session – see you next week!
