Year 5 Leadership Day

Our Year 5 children spent today learning all about leadership, taking inspiration from the example of Jesus. We spent some time beckoning the Holy Spirit to guide us and to work within us in Christian Meditation prayer. The students are advancing their mastery of self and contemplation and we pray for their continual development as future leaders of St Joseph's Primary. 

 
St Teresa of Avila's Feast Day

On Thursday 15th October we celebrated St Teresa of Avila’s feast day. St Teresa is recognised as a ‘doctor’ in the Church because of her writings and teachings on prayer. St Teresa of Avila in probably her most renowned work, The Interior Castle, describes her deepening relationship with God through prayer – the ups and downs, the struggles, the mess and quiet reflective times. She constantly struggles with her motivation to lead an interior life that reflects her outward life.
