Diocesan News
On Monday October 27, Year 6 students from St Michael’s Primary School Daylesford, St Patrick’s Primary School Gordon, St Augustine’s Primary School Creswick, St Brigid’s Primary School Ballan and Our Lady Help of Christians Primary School Wendouree gathered to share presentations based on the Catholic Social Teaching Principles.
It was inspiring to hear students share stories as to why they were raising awareness for organisations such as Dolly’s Dream, MND and Down Syndrome Victoria (to name a few). Students made explicit links to the Catholic Social Teaching Principles and shared ways in which they had raised money or awareness to support their chosen cause. Each student was commended for the courage they displayed to talk with great passion and enthusiasm.
Following the presentations, students worked in groups to discuss the Little Feet Big Footprints program for 2025 and the aspects of the program that should be maintained or added ahead of 2026.
