Making Jesus Real (MJR)
MJR is a values program based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. Within the program, children are encouraged to recognise the good in their lives, focus on these aspects and take time to thank God for them. In terms 1 & 4, students participate in a short meditation session that enables them to stop and reflect on the “God Moments’ that they experience. In terms 2 & 3, our school leaders develop MJR activities to use when facilitating peer groups. Each week, the children explore an aspect of everyday life from the viewpoint of, ‘What would Jesus say about this’ and then discuss the effects it would have on themselves and the people around them. These MJR sessions and/or meditation occur each Tuesday, from 08:40am until 9am. Parents are welcome to attend.
