Honour -Honore "
Honour
is living with a sense of respect for what
you believe is right.
It is living by the virtues, showing great
respect for yourself, other people , and the
rules you live by.
When you are honourable,
you set a good example..
We practise
being honourable
when we: practice
our virtues keep

The
focus this weekend's Gospel reminds us of the
gift of eternal life made possible by the death
and resurrection of Jesus. Jesus said a special
prayer. "Father, the time is now here. Glorify
me so that you will be glorified, too. You have
given me power to give eternal life to everyone.
And this is what eternal life is: to know you,
the only true God; and to know Jesus Christ, the
one you sent. I did everything
you sent me on earth to do. I told the people
about you. And now they know that I came from
you and that you sent me. And so I pray for them
because they are yours, and they are mine."
Kapa

this can be arranged. This cultural event starts
with a powhiri at 6pm so children will need to be
out there by 5.45pm. Please confirm your children’s
