As Catholic Schools Week 2022 came to a close on Friday, we wished to thank all of the students who said a prayer or poem over the intercom each morning last week and to all students involved in creating the artwork displayed in the school's foyer. Ms Bucke's 5th and 6th Year Religion classes created the noticeboard with key words and images showcasing the essence of this years theme 'Living life to the full' such as 'cherish family, academics, sing, prayer and forgiveness'. Ms Whyte's 4th year students created the quote display 'Before you act, listen. Before you react, think, Before you spend, earn. Before you criticise, wait. Before you pray, forgive.' Ms Ross' group created the 'Happy Catholic Schools Week' board with every class group represented from 1st -6th year! The prayer tree has been a huge success with many prayer intentions hung upon it. First and second years have entered a poster competition, of which the winners will be announced this week.

Catholic schools week - Friday - Living Life and Facing the Future

Scripture: ‘I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full.’ (John 10:10) Reflection: Sometimes there can seem to be a contradiction between living a full life in the present and turning our minds to the future. But it doesn’t have to be ‘either/or’. We can do both. In fact, living fully in the present can create the firm foundation of a positive future. As we turn our minds and hearts towards others and towards God, we can create a satisfying and worthwhile present while building a future that can be life-enhancing. Our Catholic schools support us in this endeavour.

Catholic schools week - Thursday - Living Life in Wonder and Awe

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. Teachers award students with points for their positive behaviour such as effort and work in class, helpfulness and being respectful. Students have really got into the spirit of it and are trying very hard across subjects to earn points for their class. Well done 2nd years. Keep up the great effort! Ms Mills
