The St Clare’s community has once again come together to create a great initiative which has not only helped our community become kinder people but also allowed students' to perform 'Random Acts of Kindness'.
The entire tree represents the 'Random Acts of Kindness' our community have been experiencing, in the spirit of 'International Pay It Forward Day' celebrated on Sunday 28th April 2019. Leaves with a variety of acts of kindness written on them such as opening a door for someone, asking someone how their day is and picking up rubbish, were distributed to students. After completing the activity students' stuck their leaf on the tree, allowing the tree to gradually grow. The tree is a symbol of the growing kindness alive in St Clare’s.
Our school community really enjoyed the Pay it Forward tree as it helped us to teach one another to always be kind. It has allowed both staff and students to reach out and help those in the community, for we know that random acts of kindness can change a person’s day, and it's great that the entire school were on board with this initiative! Thanks to the teachers, Learning Mentors and student leaders who helped the school to become a kinder place. Also a huge thank you to all the students who helped with cutting out leaves, helping support the school and getting involved in a community activity. Great work St Clare's.

ACADEMIC ASSEMBLY We held an Academic Assembly for students based on their Semester 2 2023 reports. They were presented with awards as they had shown persistence in achieving their personal best, and demonstrated pride in themselves and their work. It is with great joy that we, as a community of learners, congratulate and praise the efforts and successes of those among us. We also acknowledged and heard from our Dux of 2023, Siddhi Bilash and were able to present awards to Milan Prasad, Andre Tan and Denzel Tan.

OPENING SCHOOL LITURGY AND WATER BLESSING In our 2024 opening school liturgy we established a sacred space we were reminded that “wherever two or more are gathered in Christ’s name, Christ is present.” Just as we established our sacred space, reminded of the rich traditions of our school, we also acknowledged the ancient traditions of the Dharug people. To do so, we began with an Acknowledgement of Country in recognition that the land on which our school is built, is Dharug country, to pay respect to elders, past, present and future and our responsibility in walking together in Reconciliation. At the beginning of the new school year, we were honoured to be joined by Aunty Lin Johnson and Aunty Jean Boney as well as Sister Naomi and Mr John Spradbrow who led us in a Water Blessing. #stclaresrepresent #praisegodbyyourlife

FAITH IN ACTION! Our Year 10-12 student leaders recently attended the annual Project Compassion Launch, inspired by the Gospel message from Bishop Vincent, which calls us to be the 'critical yeast' that expands and spreads the goodness of charity to those less fortunate. He urged us to demand more of ourselves by doing more and giving more in this Lenten season and through the Project Compassion campaign. We were also blessed to have Dan Skehan, the Programmes Director of Caritas, present, sharing the practical ways their organisation uses these funds to aid those in need. We will launch our Project Compassion campaign on Ash Wednesday and invite parents and students to heed Jesus's call to give more this Lenten season. Please stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks on how you can contribute. Mr Gallego (Faith in Action Coordinator) #stclaresrepresent #praisegodbyyourlife
