FROM THE REC
THE SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION
Congratulations to Ethan, Thomas and Nace who received the Sacrament of Reconciliation on Sunday at 8.30am at St Mary’s Parish Church. These children had been preparing for this sacrament all year with Mrs Murray.
Blessing for our Reconciliation Children Forgiving Father, you are with these children as they begin their journey to your forgiveness. Open their ears, minds, and hearts to the teaching of your Son. Fill them with the Spirit of love, peace, joy, and kindness. Amen.
The Resilience Project
Last week we explored the GEM principle of Gratitude. This was the focus for our GEM award at Friday's assembly. Congratulations to Phillip, Elise and Jasmine.

These daily questions have been developed to help families practise the GEM principles.
They are a great way to facilitate positive conversations as your family shares a meal either in the morning, afternoon or evening or at a time that works best.
Here are some great GEM questions you can discuss with your family.
- What were three things that went well for you today?
- Who is someone you feel really grateful for today? Tell us why.
- What is it about our home that makes it our home/special family place?
- What is something you are looking forward to tomorrow?
