Staff Retreat

On Tuesday, the College staff went on a Special Character Retreat with a difference. The venue was the Vanished World trail starting at Duntroon. The concept was to undertake a hikoi (journey) of insightful spiritual reflect to start the year. The facilitator was Christian Brother, Br Damian Price who is currently based in Brisbane.

Damien challenged us with a verse from Proverbs 22:6 "Start children off on the way they should go and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
We explored some of the challenges facing our young people and linked to the five elements of wellbeing from the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. Thank you to Mr Mullally for organising the day.
