St John Paul II FEAST DAY – Re-imagined!

St_John_Paul_II.jpeg
Next Friday, October 22 is the Feast Day of St John Paul II, our school’s patron. Normally, we would have a whole day of spiritual, physical, (and nutritional!) celebrations with our Feast Day Mass, House Cakes, and fun events run by our College Leadership Team – the Inter-House competitions and JPC Fun Fair in the afternoon.

Week 13 -  Inter-House Competition:

Due to the staggered return to school by our Junior students, we will be doing things differently this year, starting on Monday in Week 13 with a 5 day inter-House ‘competition’ of daily activities which are designed to get the kids away from their computers, get to know St John Paul II, and/or have some fun with their families. We will hold a formal Feast Day liturgy on Tuesday, November 2 when all students have returned to school.

Join in on Moodle:

The activities for next week are listed below. Students are asked to take a photo of the product or their participation in the activity on the Feast Day page on Moodle, and points will be awarded to Houses for each ‘entry’. Friday will culminate with the announcement of the winning House, and a short liturgy/prayer to run in our TEAMS PC session to remind us of the special day and the very special man, St John Paul II, who inspires so much of our school’s philosophy and identity. 

Next week’s activities:

  • Monday –  JPC Trivia – Opens Monday on Moodle – 2021 Feast Day page          
  • Tuesday –  Bake-OFF - JPC inspired: red white & blue cake, Pope shaped biscuits?
  • Wednesday –  wear Red, White and Blue and take a photo (online Students Only)
  • Thursday – CRAZY SOCK DAY -  wear the craziest socks and take a photo. Donate to October Mission Month Fund Raising via JPC Qkr! (online Students Only)
  • Friday – PC Prayer and announcement of winning House at 11:20 AM

Please discuss this with your family and encourage

EVERYONE to join in!

A special thank you to our College Leaders for putting this fun together!
