Parent Engagement workshop for secondary schools

We recently began planning an event for Catholic secondary schools to share in dialogue the role each of us have to engage parents in learning of their children. Ironically as parents we are now being called to engage in our children's learning at home as the recent virus has changed the way we are thinking about work and learning and where it happens. 

It was with disappointment that we had to cancel the event due to be facilitated by international guest speaker, Anne T Henderson from the US.

Catholic School Parents Victoria will continue to support parents and schools as we move through these challenges with the understanding that we are in this together. Now more than ever our partnerships are critical to support children and their learning during this time. 

We will continue to plan for further events in the future and will keep you informed of further opportunities to learn more about how parent engagement impacts student learning outcomes.

Church Services for Catholics

Liturgy and sacramental guidelines
The Bishops of Victoria have issued new guidelines regarding the celebration of liturgies and sacraments.

Public liturgies, celebrations of Mass, and other gatherings such as funerals, weddings and baptisms have been suspended. Clergy have been encouraged to celebrate Mass privately and the Bishops encourage us all to participate spiritually.

All Catholics in Victoria are dispensed from their Sunday obligation until further notice.

Please find some resources below for Catholic families to continue to engage in mass and prayer:
