Celebrating Our Faith
Talking to Jesus
During our school prayer, the SRC shared a song with the school which spoke about talking to Jesus. During lockdown, some of us may have felt a little isolated and even a little lonely. It was great to be reminded that we are never alone, we have a friend in Jesus. We just need to keep talking to Him.
SOCKTOBER SHOOT OUT!
Next term St Joseph’s will be celebrating our mission by raising funds for vulnerable children in Thailand during the month of October. We look forward to kicking some goals for those in need for the Socktober Shoot Out on Friday 29th October.
Students can seek sponsors and have an opportunity to raise funds for every goal kicked!! Total goals kicked will add to their Sports House tally for a whole team prize!!

World Teachers' Day
World Teachers' Day is Tuesday 5th October and recognises the contribution of teachers to our lives. Please pray for teachers, past and present, that the fire of passion for their work continues to shape and inspire the current and future generations. We recognise the teachers who are now retired and those who have passed. May their legacy live on in the students they taught.
