Celebrating Catholic Education Week

St. Francis Catholic Elementary School students Adora Sam (Full Day Kindergarten) and Molly Legault (grade 1) show off the school's representation of this year's Catholic Education Week Poster. May 6, 2013 - At St. Francis Catholic Elementary School, the students and staff have embraced this year's theme "Growing Together in Faith" in a very creative way. To bring the school community together as one, teachers Christina Bedoya and Lise Malette took all of the student photos and designed a "growing tree of life" which included a picture of every single student and staff member, including teachers, EAs ECEs, the custodian, administrators and the parish priest, Father Larry - all are all part of the tree. The arrangement was created to match the poster for Catholic Education Week. School vice-principal Krista Sarmatiuk was very proud of their creation. "What a wonderful tribute to our school and our faith," Sarmatiuk stated. "This tree of life represents us as a school, and as part of the Catholic family - it is a wonderful embodiment of us as the St. Francis community - rooted in our faith!" Share Tweet
