Blast from the Past! ⏳ Today, our Kindergarten students stepped back in time for a very special learning experience. Dressed as children from the past, they explored how life used to be long ago. Throughout the day, students engaged with a range of historical objects and took part in hands-on activities that helped them discover how things were done in earlier times. It was a wonderful opportunity to spark curiosity, bring history to life, and deepen their understanding of how the world has changed over time.

Yesterday’s May Flower Offering was a beautiful reminder that FIAT is growing. 🌸🤍 So many students came together in prayer, reflection, and faith as we honoured Mary during this special month of May. Seeing such a strong turnout and so many willing hearts shows that faith in action is truly alive in our school community. Thank you to everyone who participated, led prayers, offered flowers, and helped make the celebration so meaningful. Mary’s “yes” continues to inspire our own. 💙 #FIAT #FaithInAction #MayFlowerOffering #CatholicSchoolLife #FaithInActionTeam #AveMaria #GrowingInFaith #cspdfaithinaction
