Hello everyone,

​God bless and stay safe,

Miss O'Garro's song of the week
This week I have chosen:
Kes - Hello
Last week we were blessed with beautiful, sunny weather. Now, even though it doesn't look like we will get that again this week, I thought I would still share my favourite song for the summer. I love how soca music always makes me feel like I'm on the beach in the Caribbean.

The world is a special place God asks us to care of it
 
Catholic Social Teaching:
A Key Principle – Stewardship of creation.
The earth and all life on it is God’s creation. We are called to take care of it because it is a holy gift from God and the only place we can live. When we make bad or thoughtless use of the earth’s resources, many people suffer. When we make poor choices about how we treat other living things (people, animals, plants) we cause life to be less than God intends. Making wise choices about the care of God’s creation is called good stewardship.
Ask the question of each statement in the document below: Is this good stewardship?
