ACTIVATE is an Immersive Spiritual Experience based on the Year 6 unit, Confirmation: Celebrating the Gift of the Holy Spirit. On Tuesday Year 6 students travelled to St Michael's in Nowra and participated in a day with the Catholic Youth Ministry of Wollongong. This gave our Year 6 students an opportunity to celebrate our faith with other Year 6 students and make new friendships. Thank you to both Mr Harding and Mrs Robinson for accompanying Year 6 to Nowra.

This coming Monday our Year 4 students will complete a Religious Literacy Assessment as part of a systemic Diocesan approach to the documentation and reporting of students’ learning in the key learning area of Religious Education (RE) across the diocese and in particular, aspects of religious literacy. It is a means of celebrating and sharing the good news about students' learning in Religious Education and enables the story to be told on a continuing basis. To be religiously literate, children leaving a Catholic primary school need to be able to communicate with and be at home in Catholic society and religion in general so that they can participate in the faith. The assessment of religious literacy focuses on students’ knowledge and understanding of the key concepts that are being addressed by the Religious Education program and the children’s ability to communicate with their religious tradition.

Our next family Mass will be held at 5pm August 7 at St Mary’s Church in Milton. Please join us for Mass.
