Religious Curriculum at St Thomas Aquinas

Year 3 are deepening their understanding of how a community's purpose is revealed through its history and the participation of its members. They will identify different communities to which they belong and their importance in contributing to our sense of identity. Year 3 will learn how different communities may have different purposes and the reasons why. They will also explore the history of our own Archdiocese as a faith community that supports in practical ways as well as being a source of nourishing the faith. If you would like to learn more about this history there is some useful information on the Canberra/Goulburn website linked here.  

Religious Life of St Thomas Aquinas

Dignity Hamper

As part of our ongoing support of St Vincent de Paul and those in need in our own community we have established a new dignity hamper. Families are invited to donate to the hampers items to assist the homeless and those in need with hygiene items such as shampoo and conditioner, body wash or soap, deodorant, tampons and pads, incontinence aids and moisturizer. All donations can be place in the new cubes outside the Coordinators’ Office. These will be passed on to St Vincent de Paul as the cubes become full. Thank you in anticipation of your generous donations.

Mission Month

October is Mission Month for our Church. We reflect upon the generous work done around the world by our missionaries and find ways to support them practically. This year Catholic Mission are focusing on Mongolia and the work done through the Caring Center there. We will hold our annual Socktober activities at St Thomas Aquinas in support of Catholic Mission. This Friday, 25^th October, 3 Green will lead us in prayer for Mission Month. Families are warmly invited to join us in the school Hall at 9:30 to share this prayer celebration.
