Religious Education in the Classroom
Welcome to Week 6! 5GREEN Buddies helped 1GREEN explore the Bible and find the Old Testament (OT) and the New Testament (NT). 1GREEN students learnt that the OT tells stories about God and His love for His people and the NT tells stories about Jesus’ life and His teachings.





5RED and 1RED students went on their own pilgrimage around Mt Carmel School and St. Augustine’s grounds.
Over the last two weeks, 2BLUE and 2GOLD celebrated Friday Parish Mass in the Lovat Chapel.



Catholic Schools Youth Ministry Australia (CSYMA) Junior Program
Mt Carmel School implements the Catholic Schools Youth Ministry Australia (CSYMA) Junior program. CSYMA is a four-phase method that provides a model of student formation. It is an effective model of evangelisation and formation integrated into the Religious Education curriculum. The four-phase model consists of an initial retreat experience, Religious Education resources, implementation of the Junior Ministry team and connecting students into the broader Church community.
This Friday, Yr 6 students will participate in the Journey with Jesus Retreat, led by the Youth Ministry team of the Archdiocese of Canberra & Goulburn. Journey with Jesus is a faith and ministry experience that delves into core concepts of the Catholic Faith. The retreat is tailored for primary school students and is based around the Gospel messages of love, salvation, and forgiveness.
