The Caritas theme for 2024, was “For future generations”. One might ask what this means. As educators we play a vital role in lead the paths for the young that we are surrounded by. In all that we do and say we are being heard and watched. We shape what the future will bring, which makes all we strive to do important.

It is through such projects that we uphold the dignity of all. We are encouraged to stop and think of the other, be it the poor, hungry and the many others suffering from the injustices of the world. During Term 1, the CRCCS Social Justice Team organised and facilitated a range of events to encourage the entire community to come together, open their hearts and generously donate towards this cause. It was through sausage sizzles, casual clothes days, treat sales and homeroom donations, that we were able to raise an amazing $5,091.03.

From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to thank you for the difference you have made in the lives of others. Someone out there will be keeping you in their prayers for the meal on their table, or the shoes on their feet.

Term 2 will bring allow us to redirect our focus on own brothers and sisters in Uganda. However, for now, thank you and God bless all your efforts.
