SCHOOL PRAYER

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

This is our school, Ss Peter and Paul.
Let peace dwell here.
Let the rooms be full of contentment,
Let love abide here.
Love of one another, love of all people,
Love of life itself and love of God.
Let us remember that as many hands build a house,
So many hearts make a school.
Ss Peter and Paul, pray for us.
St Joseph, pray for us.
St Mary of the Cross, pray for us.

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

SCHOOL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

We respectfully acknowledge the traditional custodians here on Dharawal country, which encompasses all of the Illawarra from the mountains to the sea.

Dharawal peoples whose footprints are etched on this landscape have always cared for this country and continue to sustain all that is sacred.

We pay respect to all Aboriginal people, whose culture and customs have nurtured and continue to be nurtured on this great southern land of the Holy Spirit since men and women awoke from the Dreaming.
