Catholic schools week - Thursday - Living Life in Wonder and Awe
Created : 26 Jan 2022, 4:24 PM

Scripture: ‘For so many marvels I thank you; a wonder am I, and all your works are wonders.’ (Psalm 139) Reflection: Sometimes, if we’re fortunate, we can see great and amazing wonders outside of ourselves – in nature, in people, in the arts. But we can forget the wonder within ourselves. We may fall into the trap of thinking little of ourselves; we may have low self-esteem. This can happen because we believe, rightly or wrongly, that others think little of us. However, the deep personal love God has for us surpasses all this. But it can be a struggle to believe such wonderful things about ourselves without getting big-headed or arrogant about it, as some do. So, the challenge is to get the balance right. Will we rise to that challenge? Will our Catholic school community encourage us and support us to rise to that challenge?

The TY Green Schools Committee is applying for the Green flag for "Water". The aim is to create awareness among the school committee about water conservation. The committee will be conducting a water awareness campaign as well as promoting changes in behaviors relating to water usage over the next two years. A survey was completed by students and the results will be used to identify areas we need to improve on. Each week the committee will include a fact about water on the school app./website. The committee would appreciate your support with this project by reading the facts and thinking about them.  Thank you.
Catholic Schools Week - Wednesday -(Grandparents’ Day) Celebrating Being Together Again

Today we reflect on the role that older people, and in particular grandparents, play in our lives. As the country opens up, many of us have been reunited with our loved ones. During the pandemic, older people, and possibly our own grandparents, were placed in the vulnerable category and asked to cocoon in order to stay safe. As our country re-opens and the vaccination programme has rolled out, we are now able to reconnect with our older and vulnerable loved ones. And yet, while they were placed in the ‘vulnerable’ category, our love and bond with them was stronger than ever. We learned to appreciate any connection with them. Now the ‘cloud has been lifted’ and in our Catholic school we identify the ways in which older people enrich our lives. We thank God for their presence in our lives. They are part of our Catholic school community through their connection with us.

Our 2nd year students are taking part in a January Challenge to promote positive student behaviour throughout the school day.

Catholic Schools Week - Tuesday - Living life to the Full Together

Today we reflect on how inclusive our Catholic school is. The new Junior Cycle specification underpins every aspect with a call to question, explore, enquire and reflect. These four verbs are critical to creating an environment of inclusion – a place where everyone, of all faiths and none, is accepted and welcomed. Today we reflect on the times that we have been encouraged to question, to explore, to enquire and to reflect. These skills should be fostered to the greatest extent, not just in our Religious Education class, but in every classroom in a Catholic school.

Students were invited during Religion classes today to write a prayer intention to hang on the prayer tree, if they wished. This will continue during this week, Catholic schools week, so that everyone will have had the opportunity to do so. It is lovely to see students put forward their various prayer intentions including remembering loved ones who have passed as well as those who are sick.
