Catholic Education Week 2020

Catholic Education Week 2020
Posted on 05/03/2020

This year, Catholic Education Week (CEW) runs from May 3 - 8 with the theme Igniting Hope

Students and staff at the Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board will participate in daily prayers, activities and lessons, designed to incorporate this special week and its theme. We also invite families to participate in our CEW Photo Challenge. Take a picture spending time together, e.g. playing games, watching a movie, eating dinner, then, upload it to our online submission form.  We will use all of the pictures to create a photo mosaic, which we will share with everyone at the end of the week. 


We are also happy to share that the theme song for this year was recorded by a former SMCDSB student and employee, Chris Rait.


Father Jim Saginario will be holding a virtual Mass on Tuesday, May 5 at 11 a.m., which will be live streamed and available through the Google Meet Link. 


On Wednesday, May 6 at 10 a.m., His Eminence, Thomas Cardinal Collins will be leading a special Catholic Education Week Mass. All students, families, staff, trustees, and the broader Catholic community are invited to participate "virtually" in this celebration of the Eucharist by clicking on the following link at the scheduled time: https://www.stmichaelscathedral.com/live
