It was a privilege to attend the Blessing and Official Opening of the Pilgrim Trail - Camino Salvado on Tuesday. Salvado Captain, Belinda Cooper, Salvado House Representatives, Sean Smith and Skyler Stewart, Mrs DeCourcier and Mr Muller also attended. The Camino Salvado finishes at New Norcia, so it was very fitting that the trail was blessed by Abbot John and Father Bernard from the New Norcia Benedictine Community. The Pilgrim Trail was officially opened by Her Excellency the Honourable Governor Kerry Sanderson AO, Governor of Western Australia. Trevor Walley, Noongar descendant of the New Norcia mission said, 'when you walk the trail you become the trail.'
Students from Holy Cross walk sections of the trail each year. The Year 12 students will walk the last two sections into New Norcia in August as part of their Retreat.
PROFESSIONAL LEARNING DAY FOR STAFF
A reminder, Tuesday 7 March is a Professional Learning Day for staff. There will be no classes for students. This is a good opportunity to engage in home study or to work on completing Christian Service hours.
