Year 2 Pupils living out our Mission Statement to ‘Make Christ and his values known to all and be of service to society’. Children we have reflected on Pope Francis’ call in Laudato Si to look after our God given world walking in the footsteps of Jesus to help others.
Year 2 Missio World
Date: 12th Jan 2023
Present: 22 year 2 pupils
Agenda:
- Reusing and Recycling
- Reducing
We talked about how we have been reflecting on the Catholic Virtues of attentive and Discerning, through our actions in school and in our deeds through encouraging others to reflect on how we can live out, put into action being attentive to Jesus’ word and to be discerning, to make right choices.
Starting with us, children discussed how we can make a difference in school.
Action:
Monitors were selected to switch of light and switch off light switches.
| Ethically informed- Looking after our world Pope Francis’ message- Laudato Si | ||
| Reducing waste- water | Switching off lights | Recycling- Coats Uniform shoes |
| Action Monitors until Feb 23 | Action Monitors until Feb 23 | Action: Ms B to write to parents to ask for good quality, clean coats, uniform and shoes. |
We also thought about how this fits in with our right to say what we think should happen (Article 12) and with recycling coats, uniform and shoes, we would be able to grow up to be healthy (Article 6).
