We shared our goals for the year and reflected on the type of individuals we aspire to be. We learned how to stay grounded, be courageous, and advocate for ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, we shifted our focus to understand women in our broader community who face different challenges than we do. Our guest speaker, Danielle Miller, and her \u2018Walk the Talk\u2019 program were the highlights of the year. She opened our eyes to the experiences and struggles of women around the world, inspiring us with ideas on how we can support those in our local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Ms Benti&#8217;s help, we created a Liturgy to pray together for an end to domestic and family violence. We collected gift vouchers and hung them on small trees to symbolise a fresh start for women and children in need. I\u2019m excited for the Parramatta Women\u2019s Shelter to receive our vouchers, which will help provide food, clothing, and Christmas gifts for their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we&#8217;re busy preparing for the Fra Angelico Festival, where we will offer face painting, a photo wall, and cookie decorating, among other activities. All the funds we raise will go to Women\u2019s Community Shelters. I believe this Pastoral Care Program has truly allowed me to engage in something meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Charlotte D\u2019Onofrio<\/strong><br>Year 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"13843\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-145x109.jpeg 145w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-290x218.jpeg 290w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-600x450.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2-200x150.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2024\/11\/IMG_2179-2.jpeg 1701w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our Year 10 pastoral care program, we focused on Strong Voices: our own, each other&#8217;s, and those that often go unheard.
