The third module for the School Chaplaincy Teams, SCTs, was delivered by Ms Soh Lai Leng, the principal of Holy Innocents High and Ms Michelle Soliano, the principal programme executive of the Family Life Society on the 22nd of July.
Their session explored the structures of Singapore's educational system. The important role of the Church and the Ministry of Education was also examined.
Bro. Colin Wee, FSC delivered the concluding module on the 29th of July. The La Salle brother's topic on Human Development & Faith Formation was delivered at the parish of the Risen Christ Church in Toa Payoh.
His hilarity and wealth of experience was indeed enriching as he expounded on the changes and challenges that school children face today. The four hour lecture was concluded with the presentation of certificates of participation to the attendees.
The School Chaplaincy Teams is ACCS' response to Catholic schools who have long called for support from the Archdiocese in the areas of Religious Education, Catholic ethos and relations with parish communities.
The SCT is a team of persons who may be lay, religious or clerical who minister to a school community. The aim of the SCT is to support school leaders in their on-going efforts to provide quality Catholic education for all students in our schools, especially in the areas of religious education, pastoral care and sacramental life.
