Volume 31 - 16 October, 2012 Dear Parents and Students
Together at Loreto, in all we plan and do we look to emphasize the enduring importance of seeking connectedness, right rela onships, wellness, excellence and the service and empowerment of others. Last week’s ac vi es a est to this. The Year 9’s spent a day celebra ng sisterhood, nurturing their connectedness to each other and their individual wellness. The Year 10’s faced the challenges of outdoor camping and physical ac vi es and discovered great depths of strength and resilience. The Year 11’s, over a three day program, explored the importance we place on such pursuits as they opened their minds and hearts to the call of leadership and what this means in the context of a Loreto educa on. Our Year 12’s celebrated with their Mothers, at the Mother Daughter Breakfast, the joy and love that comes from connectedness and right rela onships. Gracious God
For the love of our world and its future, we seek to pursue right relaƟonships with, and the wellness of all beings, all things and all crea on.
In so doing, we seek to use our God given talents in the pursuit of excellence and in the loving and responsible service and empowerment of all.
We celebrate the mystery that exists in the miracle of life, crea on and all things and thus seek to be er understand our connectedness.
These are our ENDURING PURSUITS.
With your grace may we find what we seek in your name. Amen.
