Our Third Year students from classes Dargan, Chadwick and Croft participated in a retreat today. Accompanied by Ms Fitzgerald and Ms Wong, the group travelled to De la Salle retreat centre. Blessed with the glorious Spring sunshine, the retreat focused on the theme of gratitude and blessings in life. Many Scripture references and inspiring quotes adorned the walls of the centre providing the setting and atmosphere for the experience. Students working with retreat leaders identified particular highlights of the day. These included the peaceful environment, the chance to work collaboratively with other students in their year group, the opportunity to develop and strengthen friendships and how meditation as a form of prayer can be used as a way to connect with a higher being. Overall, an uplifting Lenten experience.
We wish students from classes Barat, Chadwick and Croft a positive and enriching retreat ahead tomorrow.
