How do we support children to embrace the Catholic faith and tradition in the culture of Australia today?
The Ballarat Frassati Group is a group of Catholic families working to open an independent primary school in Linton in 2020.
The Board of Directors of Our Lady of Fatima School (subject
to VRQA approval) is excited to announce the integration of the Catechesis of
the Good Shepherd into our framework. Fitting seamlessly within the Classical
Education framework that we have adopted for delivering a comprehensive
curriculum, Catechesis of the Good Shepherd will be introduced progressively
once the school launches.
Come along to our Public Meeting on SATURDAY,
1st June 2019 at St Patrick’s Cathedral Ballarat (MacKillop/Glowrey Rooms) from
2-4pm, to hear how we will teach children truth, goodness and beauty within the
Australian National Curriculum, through the use of a classical education
framework that focuses on the Trivium of grammar, logic and rhetoric. Dr Andy
Mullins, renowned author, will be our guest speaker and will be presenting
Parenting for Character, raising children of virtue. Our
curriculum team will be presenting examples of what a Classical Christian
education looks like and the School Board is excited about engaging in
discussion with all attendees on the day. Afternoon tea will be provided.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
