Greetings from St Bede's

Mr Justin Boyle —

We come to the end of the 6th week in the term.

The ordination of our new bishop, Paul Martin, last Saturday was the highlight and we took the opportunity to feature his speech at the assembly. It was emotive viewing.

You see by the photo’s attached, that it was a ceremony with plenty of ritual that was attended by over 110 clergy, Cardinals, Bishops and Priests.

If you listen to his speech you will hear he asks for our prayers as he begins, no doubt conscious of the big decisions he has to make post-earthquake Christchurch.

Summer sport continues. The rowring and tennis teams performed very well at their respective South Island Tournaments, and a most talented waterpolo team performed very well against CBHS last night.

Until next time

Justin Boyle
