Saints of the Month
At St. Bernard's we broaden our knowledge of Catholic Saints by learning about them. Every month we study 2 Catholic Saints and we understand how they have made a difference in God's world. Our School Mission embodies this fully - making a difference in God's world.
The children also have the opportunity to celebrate specific Saint's days
Our Saints of the Month are...
St Therese of Lisieux - October 1st
St John Henry Newman - October 9th
Why are Saints important to us at St. Bernard's?
Saints are important because they are our role-models and more importantly, faith models. Saints intercede for us with God in heaven. How many Saints do you know? Who is your favourite Saint and why? Did you know that Saints are the inspiration for the naming of Catholic schools around the world. How many Catholic schools can you name?
