Virtue of the month: KINDNESS

Virtues Recognition Program

During Catholic Schools Week our school held the Virtues Awards assembly in recognition of the virtue of GENEROSITY. The students will wear a specially designed ribbon and pin for the day as a sign of their being recognized. Congratulations to all the students who received awards! Our Virtue of the Month for February 2023 is KINDNESS.

Dear Parents,

At Holy Cross, we teach our students the importance of virtues and further emphasize the teachings with a new virtue each month. The virtue for this month is generosity. “Being generous means giving to another person without expecting anything back in return.”

As part of displaying acts of generosity, the students and staff will participate in a school wide Food Bank collection. The collection of NON PERISHABLE foods items will begin on Monday January 9, 2023 and end on Monday January 30, 2023. All proceeds will be donated to our community’s St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Outreach to help those less fortunate. Please when donating food items, be mindful of expiry or best before dates. Your family’s contribution to the food drive is greatly appreciated as it will not only make a positive difference in our local community, but will also deepen the demonstration of generosity to your child. We thank you in advance for your contributions and are grateful for your support.

Sincerely,

Madame M-L Saina
