What a busy couple of weeks it’s been! There have been so many activities happening around the College, between sporting events, liturgies and even a pancake flipping race! It’s been so nice to see everyone getting involved and making the most of all the opportunities on offer.

Breakfast Club is back in full swing, and I have met so many new students in the past week. Some of the Grade 7s have been checking out the breakfast spread and stopping by for a chat, which has been great. They seem to be settling in nicely, making new friends and getting used to their new routines.

I read something recently that I wanted to share with you. It’s just a nice reminder for us to think about when we see someone struggling…

“When a torch grows dim or quits working, you don’t throw it away – you charge the batteries.
When a person messes up and finds themselves in a dark place, do you cast them aside? Of course not – you help them charge their batteries.
Some need AA…attention and affection; some need AAA…attention, affection, and acceptance; some need C…compassion; some need D…direction. And if they still don’t seem to shine…simply sit with them quietly and share your light.” (Unknown)

Have a great week everyone and remember to be kind to each other.
