Obami Gathering - 9 February
An “Obami Gathering” is organized at the Holy Rosary School, Edenvale on the 9th February at 6pm. All teachers are welcome to understand what 'Obami' is about.

A teacher at St Benedict’s Preparatory said: "Obami is a fantastic product that has been an innovative way to integrate all subjects into computer lessons. I love the simplicity of Obami and the enjoyment I get out of it with my pupils. My pupils enjoy using the site and don't even realise that they are learning!" 
 
Echoing The Word
AN INTRODUCTORY COURSE FOR RELIGIOUS EDUCATORS

INTRODUCTION
The title reflects both the origin and scope of the course. Echoing The Word has been offered in various centres in South Africa, Lesotho and Zimbabwe since 1995.

The Scripture focus of the course is captured in the Word, while the idea of Echoing it suggests the activity of Theology, which seeks to understand the Word in the context of the faith community, and its application in daily living.  Download to read more...
