Faith Matters
Catholic Schools Week September 16-21
“Discovering New Horizon”
The theme for Catholic Education Week this year has been aligned with the official Year of Youth theme for 2018 and is derived from a speech given by Pope Francis at World Youth Day 2016 where he called young people and the Church to ‘open new horizons for spreading joy’
My friends, Jesus is the Lord of risk, he is the Lord of the eternal “more”. Jesus is not the Lord of comfort, security and ease. Following Jesus demands a good dose of courage, a readiness to trade in the sofa for a pair of walking shoes and to set out on new and uncharted paths. To blaze trails that open up new horizons capable of spreading joy, born of God’s love and wells up in your hearts with every act of mercy.
Western Region Catholic Schools’ Mass
On Tuesday students from across our Western Region gathered at Sacred Heart to celebrate mass together and play and socialise on our playground. It was a wonderful time seeing our students welcome and include others. The Mass was a great celebration of all that Catholic Schools in our diocese represent.
Traditions Day Mass
Tomorrow at 11:45 our school celebrates Traditions Day. We celebrate Mass and gather together for a sausage sizzle to remember the contribution that the Sisters of Mercy and the de La Sale Brothers have made to our school.
