Laudato Si' Week
This week we have been celebrating Laudato Si' Week and give thanks for the beautiful world we have. With the focus of 'Creation's Beauty' it's a great opportunity to consider how our actions can affect the Earth and what small changes we can make each day with the environment in mind.
Our Laudato Si' Photography Competition saw over 200 entries from students exhibiting the theme, 'Creation's Beauty'. This Thursday during first break Miss Galea will run a viewing of all the entries in the Library and announce the competition winners.
During PC each day students were given time to further explore Laudato Si' with a daily reflection and prayer, kindly shared by Miss Galea.
