The Season of Creation

The annual celebration of the Season of Creation invites the world’s 2.6 billion Christians to pray and take action to protect Earth, our common home and to discern the guidance it offers us for bringing about the New Creation of which Jesus spoke. The Season of Creation takes place from September 1st, the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, to October 4th, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi. 

How You Can Participate:

• At Home: Families can participate by adopting eco-friendly practices such as reducing waste, conserving water, and using energy-efficient appliances. Discussing these practices at home can reinforce the lessons learned at school.
• In the Community: Join local environmental groups or participate in community events focused on sustainability. Volunteering for clean-up drives or tree planting initiatives can make a significant impact.
• Through Prayer: Incorporate prayers for the environment into your daily routine. Reflecting on the beauty of creation and our role in its preservation can inspire meaningful action.

By engaging in the Season of Creation, we aim to inspire our students and families to become more mindful of their environmental impact and to take proactive steps towards sustainability. Let us come together to celebrate and protect the beautiful world that God has entrusted to us.

Curriculum

It is always a joy to visit classrooms and see the fantastic learning and high level of engagement. Students in Initialit classes participate in many activities aimed at developing reading fluency and comprehension skills. 

After a full morning of learning, we enjoy time with our friends during the break. Today was no exception, with the weather perfect for an impromtu recess picnic.
