Greetings School Family,

Easter celebrations may be over, but may we always keep in our hearts and minds the hope of the Resurrection and the return of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.

As you know, we have been studying the Cardinal Virtues. April's virtue is under Prudence. We are studying Adaptability, which we feel is very beneficial during these challenging times. We wanted our Gaglardi families to enjoy the blessings that come with learning these virtues

So, below, you'll find April's virtue, the Bible memory verse, and a plethora of wonderful resources with their links for parents and students to take advantage of. You can even send a picture of your projects in an email. Your teachers will love to hear from you and to know what you have done.

Mrs. Bomske

Cardinal Virtue for April

  • Prudence: Adaptability
  • Memory verse: "I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength." (Philippians 4:12,13)
