Place you vote for our school: Sacred Space
Quality Catholic Education – People’s Choice Award
VOTE FOR: St Elizabeth’s entry for ‘Sacred Space’ in Religious Education category
‘Be still and know that I am God’ (Psalm 46:10). The simplicity of being still can bring us closer to God. The St Elizabeth’s Catholic Primary School sacred space has embraced the opportunity to be quiet and still with God, in His creation. The space celebrates our natural bush setting. Designated pathways were created using fallen logs from the property and the purpose of the space was defined by a simple, wooden cross. The sacred space supports personal faith formation and classroom learning. Children can reflect in the space during breaks and families can access the space for personal reflection or community prayer.

The 20 key words of the ‘Qsign Project’ provide basic communication of an individual’s health and safety needs and supports family interactions. This has relevance for all but especially for those in aged care.The Year Five and Six students at St Elizabeth’s Catholic Primary School, learnt the project signs and created games to teach them. A group of clients from aged care and other retirees, attended a morning of learning, followed by a shared morning tea. The ‘Qsign Games Day’ is now an annual event, providing interaction with the elderly and engaging students to support the dignity and quality of life of the participants.
