Religious Education at St Monica’s

In Religious Education Year 2 students are learning about many of Jesus’ teachings and actions and how these should be demonstrated in our Church community today. They are exploring many stories about Jesus including the feeding of 5000, calming the storm and Jesus as a boy in the temple. These stories all highlight important but different aspects of Jesus’ ministry whilst he was with us.

Religious Life of St Monica’s

Wednesday Parish Mass

Yesterday Year 5 attended Mass with the parish and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was mentioned as a definite highlight of their day when reflecting at home time on the day.

Next week Kindergarten are invited to join the parish at Mass on Wednesday morning at 9.30am. Families and friends are welcome to join them in celebrating Mass.

Whole School Prayer

Congratulations to Mr Green and 3 White for their prayerful leadership of our whole school prayer last Friday. Their focus on the feasts of All Saints and All Souls days reminded us how important these days are in our Catholic Church calendar.

Tomorrow’s Whole School Prayer will be led by Year 4. This prayer time we will have a final focus on our year long theme, Walking Together – You’re Invited. All families and friends are warmly invited to join the whole school in prayer tomorrow at 9.10am in St Monica’s Church.

Our final Whole School Prayer Time will be led by Kindergarten in Week 8. This prayer time we will celebrate the first week of Advent. All families and friends are warmly invited to join the whole school in prayer on Friday 1 December (can you believe you just read December…?!!) at 9.10am in St Monica’s Church.

Journey with Jesus

Today Year 5 are involved in a special time of prayer, reflection and fun activities exploring their relationship with Jesus. Journey with Jesus is led by our own Youth Minister, Mr Mass, the Year 6 Youth Ministry Team and a visiting Youth Ministry team. Next week read all about their exciting day.
