            • ASH WEDNESDAY & LEADERSHIP INDUCTION

            •  

              Today, our school community gathered in prayer to observe Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of the Lenten season. The Eucharistic celebration was presided over by Fr Butonga, Parish Priest from Tabuaeran, and was well coordinated and served by our parish catechists.

              Ash Wednesday called us to a season of prayer, conversion, and penitence, strengthening our faith and inviting us to live in solidarity with others within our parish, school community, and the wider world.

              Following the Mass, the Induction and Blessing of Student Leaders was held for our Head Boy, Head Girl, Deputies, Team Leaders, Prefects, and Class Leaders. This marked the official beginning of their leadership responsibilities and entrusted them to God’s guidance as they serve with humility and commitment.

              We sincerely thank Fr Butonga for his inspiring homily, reminding us of the Lenten pillars of Prayer, Conversion, and Generosity, and we are grateful to the Tabwakea community and our catechists for walking with us in faith as we begin this sacred journey together.

            • 59

              The Student Representative Council (SRC) successfully held a Pre-Induction Leadership Formation Workshop, facilitated by the SRC Coordinating Staff, to prepare student leaders for service and responsibility.

              The workshop formed students for their upcoming roles as Form Captains, Prefects, Team Leaders, and Head Boy and Head Girl, with a focus on leadership, teamwork, discipline, and servant leadership. The six-hour program began with prayer, followed by short, meaningful talks from staff members, interactive games, and a shared meal.

              A hands-on mini project, which involved cleaning the school compounds, gave SRC members the opportunity to practise leadership through service and teamwork. The workshop was both productive and enjoyable, and it also prepared students spiritually and practically for the installation and blessing of Heads and Prefects scheduled for this coming Wednesday.

              The school thanks the SRC Coordinating Staff and all teachers involved for their commitment to forming responsible and dedicated student leaders

            • The School Community is pleased to announce that the School Staff Home project is now nearing completion, with the roofing stage currently in progress.

              This important milestone reflects the strong spirit of cooperation and commitment within our parish. The construction work has been carried out by Catechists, who have generously volunteered their time, skills, and energy, showing great eagerness and dedication to complete the work in service to the school and parish.

              The school sincerely acknowledges and expresses its deep gratitude to the Catholic Women (Itonigaina) Kiritimati, who have fully funded this project. Their generous support and sacrifice have made this parish initiative possible and have contributed greatly to the welfare and stability of school staff.

              The school community is very happy and thankful for the commitment shown by all involved. This Staff Home stands as a shared parish achievement, built through faith, cooperation, and service. We are truly grateful for the energy, time, and generosity offered to bring this project close to completion.

              May God bless all who have contributed to this meaningful work, and may this project continue to strengthen the unity and mission of our parish and school community.
