Welcome to the end of Week 9 Term 3
Te wiki o Te Reo Maori – Maori Language Week
There is just one week of school left until the Term 3 holidays!
Following on from Social Justice week last week with the theme of
Rangimarie/Peace the Diocesan Laudato Si’ group has prepared the following
reflection for schools and families:
Laudato Si’ reflection during Season of Creation – Let Justice and Peace Flow
‘Should you not have had pity on your fellow servant, as I had pity on you? ' [Mt 18:33]
How do we join in the flow of God’s love? Aroha mai, aroha atu - Love received, love returned.
“… where injustices abound and growing numbers of people are deprived of basic human rights
and considered expendable, the principle of the common good immediately becomes, … a summons
to solidarity and a preferential option for the poorest of our brothers and sisters… it demands before
all else an appreciation of the immense dignity of the poor in the light of our deepest convictions as
believers…” [LS 158]
