The Bishop鈥檚 visit began at St. Timothy, where he met with students and staff before participating in Journeying with Jesus, a yearly tradition celebrated across HCDSB schools during Catholic Education Week. The group then walked to Notre Dame, where they were welcomed by students and staff and shared lunch together. The gathering provided an opportunity to ask questions, share stories, and build connections.
After lunch, Bishop Dabrowski visited Notre Dame’s specialized programs, including Green Industries, Life Skills, and Construction. During his classroom visits, students and teachers shared about the hands-on projects they have been working on throughout the school year, including initiatives that support and give back to local communities. Students proudly spoke about their learning experiences, the skills they are developing and the meaningful impact of their work beyond the classroom.
The day ended with a Liturgy where students, staff, and guests gathered in prayer and reflection. The celebration included a blessing, dedication to Our Lady in Bloom, and the praying of one decade of the Rosary to bring Bishop Dabrowski’s visit to a memorable close.
Thank you to the students and staff at St. Timothy and Notre Dame for helping make Bishop Dabrowski’s visit so memorable. A special thank you to Bishop Dabrowski and the Diocese of Hamilton for spending the day with our school communities in celebration of Catholic Education Week!
