There’s no better way to begin this new year than coming together in prayer and celebrating mass with Fr. Rene. We lifted up our intentions for the year.

A new year invites renewed purpose. In January, we turn to Rights and Responsibilities—a Catholic Social Teaching that affirms both our shared freedoms and our obligation to use them in service of the common good.
In our schools, this comes to life through respect, accountability, and choosing to care for one another each day.

🎄 What a joyful way to wrap up our Advent Social Justice Project at École Notre Dame Elementary! 🎄
Throughout Advent, our students showed incredible generosity by bringing in donations to support the Bonnyville Friendship Centre. Together, they helped build a “Giving Fort” made entirely of donated items — all with one big goal: to see just how much kindness our school could stack up!
This meaningful challenge reminded us that even small acts of giving can come together to make a big difference for others.
Thank you to our students and families for living out the true spirit of Advent — serving others with great love. 💛
