Christ the King Catholic Primary North Rocks


This term in Year 2 students are learning about the importance of Baptism and how baptism brings people closer to God.


They have been talking about baptism with their parents and have brought in pictures and items from their own baptism which they have used to help in their understanding of this sacrament.

Year Two students went on a gallery walk looking at the physical symbols of the Rite of Baptism and added key words and phrases about what the symbols are and what they may mean.

Students use the images from the gallery walk to sequence the Rite of Baptism. They enjoyed using an iPad to take a photo of their sequence, these were then shared with the grade on the TV.

Christ the King is lucky enough to have our parish church on the same grounds as the school, so we were able to visit the church to help in our understanding of Baptism.

Tabitha wrote "On the 5th of June my class went to the church to meet with Father Ian to learn more about the Sacrament of Baptism. Father Ian showed us the oil of Chrism. I was amazed because I’d never seen the oil of Chrism. The second oil that he showed us was the oil of Catechumen.  The oil of Catechumen has a sweet smell".

    What a delightful sight it was to see our school adorned with an array of colourful and creative Easter hats during our recent Easter Hat Parade! Today, our students came together to showcase their imagination and craftsmanship in celebration of the Easter season. Even the Easter Bunny made an appearance! From the Kindergarteners to the Year 6 students, every member of our school community eagerly participated, donning their most festive and fabulous Easter hats. The atmosphere was filled with excitement and anticipation as we gathered to admire the creativity and flair on display. As our students paraded around the school grounds, their smiles shone as brightly as the sunshine above. It was a joyous occasion filled with laughter, camaraderie, and a sense of community spirit that embodies the essence of Christ the King.

    What a special occasion it was to gather together as a school community for the Holy Week liturgy. All our students came together to commemorate the solemn and sacred journey leading up to Easter Sunday. Highlighting the significance of this holy time, our Year 6 students acted out the poignant and profound story of Easter. With reverence and dedication, they brought to life the timeless narrative of sacrifice, redemption, and the triumph of hope. As we approach Easter Sunday, we extend our warmest wishes to the entire Christ the King community. May this Easter be filled with the blessings of faith, the warmth of love, and the joy of new beginnings. May it be a time of reflection, gratitude, and spiritual growth for each and every one of us. On behalf of the school staff , we wish you all a very happy, safe, and holy Easter. May the peace and joy of this sacred season be with you and your loved ones today and always.
