2 RELIGIOUS EDUCATION NEWS WHOLE SCHOOL FOCUS for God loves a cheerful giver. Dear Parents Here s an unlikely conversation. It s between Joseph St Joseph and his mother-in-law, Anna St Anne. Anna: You re taking her where? I do not believe my ears! Joseph: Bethlehem. I have to go there, so I ll take her with me. Anna: My daughter. Nine months pregnant! You want to walk to Bethlehem? You want to take her with you? Joseph: Not want to take her with me. I m going to take her with me. If she s out of town the gossips can t pin down the date of birth. Besides, a son of David should be born in David s town. Where else? Anna: A son, is it? Where else, you say? On the road there, maybe? If the robbers don t get you first, God forbid. Joseph, nobody knows when the baby is due. This is not the moment to take her on a walking tour. Joseph: It is a long way to walk. I could find her a donkey. Anna: A Donkey! Why not a chariot? And this is supposed to be an improvement? You should try being pregnant and riding a donkey! Joseph, be reasonable. Leave her here, in her mother s care. Joseph: She s in my care now; I take care of her. How can I take care of her if I leave her behind? Anna: You ll take care of her? Suddenly you re a midwife as well as a carpenter! Joseph, this is her first baby. The only one who knows less about it is you. Joseph: Don t try to frighten us out of it; we were both told by the angel, Don t be afraid. Anna: Did the angel mention any other details? Like how to manage in her condition, in a strange town, with no help, only Joseph, the midwife carpenter! Who dreamed it would be all right? Joseph: I dreamed that I was told not to be afraid to take her. So, if I have to go to Bethlehem, then, she s coming with me. Anna: Oh well, if an angel comes to your dreams with a special message, then, why listen to the voice of common sense? I m amazed that the angel didn t tell you that you were pregnant too! Joseph: He also told me it was going to be a boy; and to name him Jesus. Anna: Jesus? My grandson? What about Rouven after my father? Or David, even? Why Jesus? What sort of name is that? Oh, Joseph! Listen to your mother-in-law Radio sketch by Cecily Cupit. This imagined conversation between Joseph and his mother-in-law, paints a picture of God coming into people s lives in totally unexpected ways. A teenage girl is to be the Mother of God and a carpenter is going to be a midwife! During Advent we are encouraged to prepare for Christ to be born into our lives but, as Mary and Joseph experienced, you don t have to be highly prepared with your spiritual life in total order. Christ, during His life, showed that He was not seeking people who are perfectly prepared and in control of things. He was interested in people who had difficulties in their lives but who wanted a way out of these difficulties; people who were honest with themselves and of good intention. Christ, today, does not expect us to be perfect but to be people of hope, who trust that His coming will have meaningful consequences in our lives. The teenaged Mary and the midwife Joseph are wonderful examples of how amazing things can occur, if we have hope and trust in God s word. Jesus, as Joseph and Mary experienced, being associated with You is full of the unexpected for You take people in their lives to where they would not have chosen to go. Help us not to be afraid but to be people of courage as we live Your values and reflect Your image. Amen. St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal Thank you to the wonderful families who have already donated to the St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal. This is not only a vital service for our community, and an important way that children can be involved to see that Christmas is not just a time for receiving, but a time for helping others too! Our school will present all donations to representatives from St Vincent de Paul Society at the Giving Mass on Sunday 12th December.
3 Nativity Concert We will be celebrating the end of year with a Nativity Concert starting at 6pm on Thursday, 9 December. It will most probably be held at Good Shepherd School Hall. We hope to see everyone there!. GIVING MASS All students and families who are available to attend the Giving Mass at Holy Spirit Church on Sunday 12th December are to be at the church by 9.00am to practice the procession they that they will be involved in. Please the front office if you are going to be at the Mass. Otherwise you can print out the sheet and return the slip to Mrs Leet. Please return your slip ASAP if you are available. Peace and best wishes, Anne Leet (Religious Education Co-ordinator) Giving Mass Sunday, 12 December at 9.30am My child/ren Will be at the 9:30 Mass on Sunday 12th December and would love to take part in the Offertory Procession. Signed:. Parent/Guardian Happy Birthday this week to: Happy birthday to Sarah Watt and Willem Hudson Tielens (1/2 Yellow), and Jordan Burgess (Orange Giraffes) who are celebrating their birthdays this week.

4 News from the ELC Our Nativity preparations are now in full swing, and you may have noticed your child humming some really catchy tunes when they return from Preschool. The children have been discussing the Christmas story and have retold their favourite part in their own words. They have also been using some wooden figures to retell the story. The tadpoles legs have finally decided to grow! Last Thursday Abbie was the first to spot them on our largest tadpole. The children have been observing them and trying to draw this next stage. We have also discovered that now they have started to grow legs they are no longer called tadpoles, but froglets, thanks to a book that Harry brought in. Despite being very busy we are still managing to continue with our cooking, this week we tackled meringues! Thanks to all those children who brought in Christmas tree decorations, we decorated the tree on Wednesday and it looks fabulous. Also don t forget to look out for the Mother Teresa School Christmas tree in The Market Place. It has a very Australian theme. Please vote for our tree as if we win we will be able to buy some more books for our library. Both the Green Frogs and Orange Giraffes have been practising hard to learn the songs for our nativity concert which will be held during week nine. It should be great fun and a special night for all. We have asked the students from both classes to come dressed up as shepherds or angels which will reflect the focus song we have been allocated for the concert. During week seven both classes have asked magnificent questions. The Orange Giraffes looked at why ice melts and under what conditions ice melts faster in. Below are some pictures of the class conducting their ice experiments. The Green Frogs explored where water comes from. They also talked further about why the sky is blue. Thanks to Toni Pfeiffer, the students had a wonderful time making and decorating their own yummy Christmas tree.
5 Gungahlin Marketplace Tree Decorating Competition Mother Teresa School has entered a Tree Decorating Competition at Gungahlin Marketplace. Our school has decided upon the theme of an Australian Christmas and the children have been busy this week making decorations. Anyone can vote on the best decorated tree by giving a gold coin donation and all proceeds go to Barnardo s Charity. The voting begins on Wednesday, 1 December and ends on Friday, 24 December. The school with the most votes will win $ of books for the library.

Early in term the relevant sub-committee chairs will be calling for people to join their subcommittee. Sub-committees formed last year showed great success and again we would like to continue this into I invite everyone to have a think about what they may like to be part of over the holy season and during the school break so they will be prepared when the call for subcommittee members comes out.
