This month we have dedicated to the important role that missionaries have, and how they can become missionaries. In addition, this year the motto of our school is the same as that of this campaign:
“I share what I have”
This campaign is a campaign of the Pope that seeks to promote reciprocal aid between children of the world.
To this end, we have dedicated hours of tutoring to reflect on the importance of valuing what we have, of being grateful and giving back to society, as good Christians, what we have and what we have not.
We used the morning prayer and the video of the new campaign for reflection every day about the importance of being thankful, sharing and helping other children.
A piggy bank has also been distributed in the classrooms so that children can contribute with voluntary contributions to the different missions that need our help.
As every year, we have gathered to celebrate together the School Day for Peace and non- violence.
This year the motto that will guide us will be “Turn on a light and let it shine”.
In the Infant and Primary Schools, families have been asked to send a letter to video in which they tell how they promote peaceful coexistence in their work.
In secondary school the students have elaborated a manifesto for Peace,
keeping in mind the phrase: “To be a light for others”. Together with this manifesto have created a candle as a symbol of light.
Finally we have finished the month with a joint act/celebration for peace of the whole educational community. In this event, we took the opportunity to welcome the students of the 1st year of Primary School by children in the 2nd year of baccalaureate.
