The Whole school focus theme for this JUBILEE 2025 year is
‘PILGRIMS OF HOPE’
This term ‘The Mother Teresa School Way’ is to be:
Companions on the Journey: Caring, Supporting, and Growing Together.
“Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” — 1
Thessalonians 5:11
At Mother Teresa School, we value being calm in a peaceful, respectful, and nurturing environment where students feel safe and supported. The Mother Teresa Way is to:
• Daily Christian Meditation
• Communicate respectfully
• Listen to each other &
• Resolve conflicts peacefully.
Something to Think About
When you don’t know how to do something, who do you ask for help? Who do you think the disciples asked for help if they wanted to know more about God? How do you think they felt when they heard that Jesus was going to die?
The Story
In today’s gospel story, we hear Jesus telling the disciples that he is going to be with God in heaven. But Jesus doesn’t want them to worry, and he tells them that he won’t just abandon them. He tells them that that he will send the Holy Spirit to help them and to remind them of all the things Jesus had taught.
