HOLY TRINITY - Christian Living Week

The week of November 29 – December 4 marked the 2nd annual Christian Living week at Holy Trinity High School. The week began with a Mass at the Cathedral on November 29th and featured a host of Speakers who shared with and encouraged the students.

On Monday November 30th the CSI team had the privilege of organizing a thought provoking and encouraging programme based on respect. The programme featured carols lead by the team, and by our dear Team Leader Keith Lyn. The talented student participation included carols from members of the prefect body and a selection from the Drum Corp. We also had the pleasure of Ms.Teresa Chin, whose moving rendition of the Greatest Love of all was met with resounding applause. Since her participation in Christian Living Week she has expressed her great interest in becoming apart of the Holy Trinity CSI Team.

There were two sessions: Deacon Yee-Sing of Stella Maris shared with the morning shift and Mr. Micheal Burke shared with the afternoon shift. Both men shared stories which triggered self reflection and reminded us about respect for self and others. Mr. Burke spoke on the importance of the stanza of our own National Anthem – ‘Teach us true respect for all’. The students were charged with the responsibility to start the change within self and at school so that our respect based values may be strengthened. Many teachers expressed gratitude for the input as they felt it would be an inspiration to many within the student body. We are truly grateful for such a dedicated team as all our members took time out to be present at the sessions. Thanks be to God for such a blessed day!
