Monday Mission Assembly
Mr Duigan led the Monday's Mission assembly of Helping Others and emphasised how everyone in the world is equal and that no-one is better than anyone else. Pope Francis has written a letter to everyone asking us to reach out to our sisters and brothers in need, wherever they are and wherever they may come from. Mr Duigan said how we are all challenged to think of ourselves as a single global family living in a common home, and neighbours to all. This means moving towards a world where everyone can be the best person they can be. Each day on this earth we can try to help other people, and while we have the option to help or ignore, coming to school with the intention to be our best selves is a choice we can all make.
The assembly concluded with Ronald Reagan's quote, 'We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone,' reminding us all that while we may not be able to solve all the world's problems, we can certainly make a difference in someone's life by being kind and helping that person in need.
