It may be a year late but the Tokyo Olympics are well underway. The Olympics are full of unforgettable moments that inspire us, bringing together people of different backgrounds. As a proud Tasmanian, I, along with the whole nation have watched Ariarne Titmus, who grew up and was educated in a Catholic school in Launceston, take home 4 medals in the pool, two of them gold. Launceston has many similarities to our location in regional Australia, including being the same population as Albury/Wodonga.

The medieval mystic Meister Eckhart once said, “If the only prayer you said in life was ‘thank you’, that would be enough.” It sounds simple, however, there is more to gratitude than it seems. Gratitude or being grateful doesn’t necessarily mean saying thank you all the time but that we create in our lives an atmosphere of worth. Not just our own worth but conveying to people who are part of our lives that we value them – that they are worthy as well. And intrinsic to that, I believe, is being grateful to God for the fact that we are in relationships that give meaning to our lives.

In the past five school weeks, I have conducted approximately 30 interviews for prospective ‘new’ Kinder 2022 families. There are more than 30 school families (siblings) that have also applied for a place for their child in 2022 and will be interviewed early in Term 3.

We all know that doctors, cleaners, farmers, plumbers, builders, teachers are just some of the occupations that are required to ensure we can all live effectively. Each one of these people has a job to do. It will always be important that these roles are fulfilled effectively.
