News from 3/4 Alger
This week we have been further investigating our Term 2 School-wide unit of "The Sacramental Church". In 3/4 we have been introduced to the seven sacraments of the Catholic Church, making connections between the key purpose and symbols of each, or connections based on some student's own experiences. All students have been curious and have developed deep questions- we will have to ask Fr Daniel to help us!
