Remembrance Day Liturgy

On Friday we gathered as a school and commemorated Remembrance Day through a prayer assembly. The last Post was played by Cordelia Highfield and Mr Gratton lead the Year 2 students in the reflection song. Thank you to our Year 2 students and teachers for leading our school liturgy last week.

Prayer

God of love and liberty,

we bring our thanks this day for the peace and security we enjoy, which was won for us through the courage and devotion of those who gave their lives in time of war.

We pray that their labour and sacrifice may not be in vain, but that their spirit may live on in us and in generations to come.

That the liberty, truth and justice which they sought to preserve may be seen and known in all the nations upon earth.

This we pray in the name of the one who gave his life for the sake of the world, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

YEAR 3 LITURGY AT THE TALLONG CHAPEL

During the Year 3 camp last week the students participated in a very special camp liturgy celebrated at the outdoor Tallong Chapel. This was a perfect backdrop for the children to spend some time in prayer and reflection. Prayer is an important part of our Catholic tradition. Sharing the scripture and proclaiming God’s word, is an integral part of whom we are as a community. The students are to be congratulated for the reverence and respect demonstrated in this time of prayer and reflection where they were asked to think about their role as stewards of our world.
