We are all called to live as Christ himself did. At Saint Anthony, we aim to "Teach as Jesus Did" and our faith is the foundation upon which everything else we do is built.
Our students meet each morning before class for a prayer service. Each Friday morning the entire school attends the 8:30am Mass and our students participate in the liturgy. We also participate in seasonal liturgies and most of our students from Grade 5 up are Altar Servers serving at weekday Masses and many weekend Masses.
Prayer and religious study form an integral part of each day at school. We truly live our school motto,"More than a school we are a Family". Our students are formed into School Families each year with children across all grade groups meeting for activities, prayer and service projects. School Families also attend mass each Wednesday morning in the Church. This nurtures the close sense of community that we have established; it also facilitates role modeling with our older students helping the younger children learn by their good example in behavior, appropriate church decorum and strong values.
Although we accept and have many students of different faiths, Saint Anthony's number one priority is to continue to build a solid foundation in Catholic tradition, morals, and values.
We recognize that parents are the primary educators of our students, and this is as true for faith formation as it is for other aspects of life. We are proud to be your partner in helping your child grow in their love of God, their love and compassion toward others and in helping them to live and spread the Gospel. We encourage all parents and staff to nurture their own faith, and we invite you to the various faith formation opportunities that our parish offers on a regular basis.
