Live Simply

This is an opportunity for us to respond to Pope Francis' invitation to "work with generosity and tenderness in protecting this world which God has entrusted to us."

To earn this award, we need to show as a school we are living:

• Simply - how we encourage our families to consume less in our daily lives.  Taking the time to be more reflective, prayerful and considerate to others.
• In solidarity with the poor - being aware that other people might be experiencing difficulties, vulnerabilities, injustice or exclusion.
• Sustainability with creation - learning ways that can help rebalances our relationship with the environment.  Remembering that God gave us this Earth for us to care for. 

Our school's action's will impact our global family, our local community and our school community as we reflect the teachings of Laudato Si' and Catholic Social Teaching along our journey.

We already do so much as a school to fulfil these objectives, but this year we have planned some special events which will have a positive impact upon our global, local and school communities.  These include:

• Working to help tackle hunger in our community.
• Thinking of ways we as a school can become more sustainable in our day to day lives.
