This year, the Social Justice Team has made ample effort to encourage and promote the wellbeing of not just those within the College community, but also worldwide. We've stood at the front gate handing out chocolates and cards, to selling jelly, baked goods, pancakes, BE Day, all for the purpose of making a difference in one or many people’s lives. Contribution can be seen and sought out in different ways. For most students, their contribution comes from donations like the huge ones we see on Live Fully, Act Justly Day. The students on the Social Justice Team make their contributions to the community by actively participating and going out of their way to support Mrs Mattar’s efforts in prioritising love, respect and compassion for all.
At the beginning of the year, I wrote that I don’t need to see big changes, but one person to smile at our group’s actions; and I believe that this goal has been reached. I personally have seen the changes, especially regarding religious mindsets. More students, young students, go to the Friday 8am Mass, younger students are asking questions about how to make the world a better place for all. To encourage faith, forgiveness and empathy while we are still young will mould younger generations to not only act as better people, but simply BE better people. I strongly believe that each little thing that our team has done this year has impacted in some way, shape or form. It has been an absolute pleasure to be CRCCS’s first Faith and Social Justice Captain and I am eager to see what will be done in the years to come. Congratulations to Mihini on the appointment of her role as the faith and Social Justice captain 2024.
I wish you all a safe and Holy Christmas with my best wishes for 2024!

A special congratulations to Mihini on her new role as CRCCS’ Faith and Social Justice Captain for 2024.
Social Justice 2024 is going to be amazing! As we work together to teach and demonstrate the essence and meaning of Living Fully Acting Justly in our community and walking in the light of God.
Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Saviour and my hope is in you all day long. Psalm 25:4-5
