Autumn 1

Active & Curious

We are active for the gifts God has given to us, for the gifts of other people and the blessings of each new day. We are active for what we have, for the people around us, for what we learn. 

We are curious with our minds and use them in the service of others. We are curious with our time and give of ourselves to serve others as God wants us to. We are curious with our actions, doing things to help other people and make a difference in the world.  

Autumn 2

Attentive & Discerning

We are attentive when we listen to our calling from God to love and serve one another in all that we do. We are attentive to our experiences and can see where they will take us in our future vocations.
We are discerning when we decide to do the right thing in the interest of the needs of others because we know the positive impact that will have on their lives.

Spring 1 

Compassionate & Loving

We are compassionate when we feel sympathy and concern for other people who are in difficulty, whether they are near to us or far away.

We are loving when we show our sympathy and concern for other people by our actions and by our words

Spring 2

Faith-filled & Hopeful

We are faith-filled when we are living life as God inspires us to live it, putting the Gospel into action through our deeds. Faith gives us belief and trust in God and in other people. We have to build on it every day through prayer, being part of a faith community and living out the gospel values. Faith gives us hope.

We are hopeful when we are optimistic about the future, we trust ourselves and others, and we don’t give up. Our faith teaches us that God is hope – that Christ walks before us and gives us the courage to follow. Hope makes us unafraid to step into the unknown and face challenges. Hope can deepen or restore our faith.

Summer 1

Eloquent & Truthful

The ability to speak or write fluently, persuasively and appropriately. We are eloquent when we use language to express our ideas or opinions clearly and with conviction. When we choose our words, we should do so carefully so they are kind and compassionate, and don’t hurt others. Eloquence isn’t limited to speaking and writing. We can express ourselves in other ways like music, drama, painting or dance. We should use our creative gifts to say things in a way that is interesting, truthful, memorable and faithful.

God wants us to be truthful in all we do. Jesus said, ‘I am the way, the truth and the life’, so being honest and truthful means we are following in his footsteps and living life the way God wants us to. Being truthful is being faithful to ourselves and to Jesus. We should stand up for the truth

Summer 2

Learned & Wise

Learning how God wants us to live our lives Whether we are young or old, we should never stop learning about what God wants of us. We learn many new things each day. By reading the Bible, listening to our teachers and listening to our hearts, we learn more of what God wants.

Knowing how God wants us to live our lives and putting it into practice. God is always with us and hoping that we will live our lives in the right way, following the teachings of Jesus.

 

You, the children, are planted in school, as a seed. 

Everyone waters you in love

so you grow to show all these virtues.

Everyone is a bird of the air so they may come to rest on the tree

to learn how to live out the virtues.
