Term 3 Week 9 - Friday 9th September 2022
From our Principal
Dear families,
Spring has (almost) sprung. The onset of Spring seems to unify the natural environment around us. Plants, trees and flowers come to life under the warming sun and spending time outside seems so much more inviting. During the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, Pope Francis invited us to examine our conscience as we connect with our natural environment. He asked that we show gratitude and gratuitousness and recognise that the world is God’s loving gift and we must show a loving awareness and connectedness to all of creation as we are “joined in a splendid universal communion.”
Every blessing for the week ahead.
