On Monday 2 May 2016 the Rotary Club, North Rocks held their annual Mother’s Day awards to celebrate local mums in the community.
As part of the celebration, Year 5 students from Christ the King Primary, North Rocks and North Rocks Public School were invited to participate in a writing competition entitled “My Mother, My Friend”.
A panel narrowed the submissions down to six students who were then invited, along with their families, to attend a special Rotary Club celebration at the Baulkham Hills Sports Club.
Event organiser Monika Tracey said the annual Mother’s Day awards offered students an opportunity to engage in their writing skills whilst celebrating their mums.
‘Each child read their story or poem to their mum, who was then presented with flowers, chocolates and a bottle of champagne, while the child was presented with a certificate,’ Monika said. ‘Dads and siblings joined us to make this an excellent night.’
Congratulation to the deserving recipients from the Christ the King Primary.

🌿✨ FIAT Student Bush Walk & Meditation ✨🌿 What a wonderful day our FIAT students had, walking through the beauty of God’s Creation and pausing for peaceful, prayerful meditation. 🥾💚 Surrounded by rustling leaves, birdsong, and fresh air, we felt God’s presence in every step and breath. 🙏🌳 In the Catholic Church, the season for September is called the Season of Creation—an annual, ecumenical celebration from September 1 (World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation) to October 4 (Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi). 🌎✨ During this time, Christians everywhere unite in prayer and action to care for Earth, our common home. 🌏💙 Thank you to our amazing students for their reverence, joy, and love for God’s beautiful world. 💫 #FIAT #SeasonOfCreation #GodsCreation #PrayerfulMoments #CareForOurCommonHome #FaithInAction
