Principal's Update
Dear colleagues,
As we enter week 10, I hope you have a productive time connecting with your students' parents. I also hope that you will have a good and refreshing break during the March holidays.
This week, I thought I'd share this quote that has lingered with me after recently coming across it in one of our school magazines from the 1980s. I'm reminded to look at our difficult boys with the eyes of faith and love, and persevere in helping them to overcome their challenging behaviours. This is perhaps a good time to also reflect on our calling and Lasallian mission ahead of our Lasallian Formation Day on Friday.
“It’s easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.”
