That's a Wrap for Week 7
When We Sing, We Pray Twice!
This week we were visited by Proclaim Lismore Wildfire Worship Team, well-known for their original new worship music and local Mission Assistants.
Ten:Ten is a high-energy experience focused on enabling students to achieve the fullness of life. Inspired by the words of Jesus in the Gospel of John, “I came so that they may have life, life to the full” (John 10:10).
This experience has provided an opportunity for all our students to celebrate life with their peers and hear the relevance of the Gospel from a team of faithful youth ministers. Each Ten:Ten session gave students the opportunity to encounter Jesus through music, talks, interactive activities and prayer.
Podcast - Dr Jennifer Buckingham in conversation with Mr Baker
Conversations across the Diocese of Lismore Podcast - “InitiaLit in Practice: A Principal’s Perspective”. In this episode listen to Dr Jennifer Buckingham in conversation with Troy Baker (Principal, St Joseph’s, Port Macquarie) discussing school-based strategies developed to support the implementation of InitiaLit. They discuss how the NSW Curriculum reform has led the school to dive deeply into learning about the Science and Reading, the Science of Learning and how this learning can help teachers understand what explicit instruction is and why it is so effective. The learning enabled teachers to develop a deep understanding of how InitiaLit is used as a tool to support teachers in developing sustainable, concise practice that enhances student learning and growth.
Our Deepest Sympathy
Our sympathy goes out to Hudson and Emerence Young for the recent loss of their Grandfather on their Mum's side and Grandmother on their Dad's side.
Both grandparents passed away
over the weekend.
Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are
with you.
