Education Week

We are in the process of planning our Catholic Education week activity.  Stay tune for updates soon. 

Halton Catholic Children's Education Foundation Fundraiser

We will be selling Handmade Olive wood Jewellery imported from Bethlehem.  Christian families began crafting artwork out of olive wood in Bethlehem more than 300 years ago.  Each piece is truly a unique art form and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

We will be selling 6 different styles of necklaces, bracelets, rings at $12 each and comfort crosses at $15 each.  All profits go to the Halton Catholic Children's Education Foundation.  We will be selling these pieces in the front foyer April 18, 23, 25, 30, May 2, 7, and during the Open House on May 9th in the pm.  Please come out and support a great foundation.

Space Graphic Novels

We are starting to write our own graphic novels based on our Space unit.  Students have been given an outline detailing what is required and can create it in either paper or digital form.  Have fun researching some of the key facts or interesting events that we learned about to include in your graphic novel.

Father Forgive Us Crosses

Father Forgive Us

We created crosses that represented all the forgiveness we have shown to others in the past.
We remember that Jesus didn't judge others and also forgave them. 

Happy Easter

Wishing everyone a blessed Easter weekend.
