We are all different, yet, made in the image of God; no individual more special, no cultural background more important. God loves all people and commands us to love Him first and also our neighbour.
Junior School have been celebrating difference as part of Manners Matter. Last week, Derek Rabelo visited College and shared with the students how he has overcome adversity to become a professional surfer despite his visually impairment. He also spoke passionately about the centrality of Jesus in his life and encouraged students to seek Jesus. Persevering through challenges is a learning behaviour we focus on at College.
Next week is Unite week; our specific lens for learning is based around acceptance, kindness, inclusivity and respect all wrapped in the message of hope and the assurance we have in Christ Jesus.
On Monday, we look forward to wearing cultural dress and celebrating difference and diversity as the students engage in rich discussions and activities throughout the whole week in English and Manners Matter lessons. This is how we make a positive impact on our community.
The holidays are upon us soon. I wish families a safe and relaxing holiday
