From Director of Junior School, Anthony Banboukjian
Prayer of the Week
We celebrate St. Luke’s service to the Church each year on October 18. We remember that his Gospel continues to help us know and love Jesus. Luke’s Gospel also reminds us to look for ways to imitate Jesus by reaching out to help our brothers and sisters in need.
In his Gospel, Luke helps us to know how concerned Jesus was for the sick, the poor, and anyone in need of help, mercy and forgiveness. Luke tells us that Jesus came to save all people. Through Luke’s Gospel, we learn how compassionate and caring Jesus was.
We also pray for Mr Gill and his family, whose father passed away over the weekend. May he find eternal rest in heaven.
Let us pray the Our Father together:
St Luke: Pray for Us
Blessed Edmund Rice: Pray for Us
Live Jesus in our Hearts: Forever

A reminder that Tuesday November 11 is set aside for the boys progressing onto the Senior School in 2017 to complete their Orientation Day.
Name on all Student Property
Can I please stress the need to ensure your son has his name on all his gear – it makes it far easier to return any lost gear.
Photos
If anyone has photos from Saturday sport or any other Waverley College event that they would like to share with the rest of the College community could I ask you to send them in on a disk or memory stick to the Junior School office.
