Our Retreat!

To get away from the school as a group of grade 6 leaders - what a treat! Students participated in games, skits, and discussions on topics such as teamwork, faith, doing the "right" thing. We also got a amazing tour of Holy Redeemer parish. Deacon Paul spoke to us about what it means to be a "light" in our life and in the live of others and we wrote personal letters to God. The grade six students (not surprisingly) were amazing! They asked fantastic questions and, I think, all benefited from a day to take a rest from school work and bond with their classmates. What a great way to end the week!
