Principal's Report
Dear Parents and Carers,
Prayer for Reconciliation
God of all creation,
as we journey together in this Great Southern Land,
we pray for healing, forgiveness and unity,
creating a path of good will, with justice and compassion.
Jesus, through the power of your love, you have given us the courage, wisdom and strength to share our gifts and talents in humility.
In peace and understanding we reconcile with each other.
Creator Spirit, we come together in prayer and thanksgiving for the many blessings we have received. Allow your Spirit to wash over us and give us strength to walk together as one. Amen.
Following the outcome of Saturday's referendum, I include the Prayer for Reconciliation again this week. I also invite you to read the following document from Bishop Charles Gauci in his role as Chair of the Bishops Commission for Relations with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. In it he states that "At this moment in our history, it is time for the Church and its ministries to redouble our efforts to close the gap – not as a slogan, but as a commitment."
Year 6 Canberra Excursion
It was my pleasure to join the Year 6 students and staff on their excursion to Canberra last week. The way that they positively engaged with the activities at each of the venues ensured that they made the most of their learning and enjoyment of the two days. Maybe some of them were inspired by what they experienced to pursue a life of public service in the future!
Wishing you a great week,
Paul Moroney
