PRINCIPAL'S REFLECTION

Dear families of St Brigid's,
      
Today we celebrate World Teachers' Day. I’d like to take a moment to acknowledge and appreciate the incredible work our educators do here at St Brigid’s. Our vision calls us to respond to Jesus’ invitation to nurture the whole person on their lifelong journey of learning, ensuring that in all things, God may be glorified.

Our dedicated teachers embody this mission every day, guided by our Catholic values and the rich Benedictine tradition. They are not only shaping leaders of faith and justice but also fostering a love of learning, encouraging each student to use their unique ‘good gifts’ to flourish.

Through their commitment to Faith, our teachers build a community grounded in prayer, service, and hospitality, faithfully following the mission of Jesus. They live out a deep sense of Justice by listening with the ear of the heart, working for the common good, and responding with energy and generosity to the needs of others and creation. In the classroom, they nurture Learning, fostering curiosity and wisdom, and providing a contemporary education that equips our students to make a positive difference in the world.

As Pope Francis reminds us, “Teaching is a beautiful job; as it allows you to see the growth day by day of people entrusted to your care.” Our teachers truly reflect this, bringing compassion, stewardship, courage, and commitment to service in all they do at St Brigid’s.

Please join me in wishing our teachers a wonderful World Teachers’ Day. Together, let’s continue to support and celebrate their dedication and the incredible role they play in shaping the future.

Loving God,
We thank You for the gift of our educators, who guide our children in faith, wisdom, and love. Bless them with patience, strength, and joy in their calling to nurture young minds and hearts.

May they always be inspired by the example of Jesus, the Divine Teacher, and lead with compassion, humility, and courage.

Grant them the wisdom to impart knowledge and the grace to touch the lives of their students, helping them grow in faith and love for You. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Yours in Faith, Justice and Learning
