Resources used for that program will be made available to participants. We will also explore mutually enriching connections between different charisms in schools with more than one heritage.This program has been recognised by BBI-The Australian Institute of Theological Education, so that participants will be eligible for joint BBI-Gerard Rummery Institute certification. It will also be registered with Sydney Catholic Schools and other Catholic Education Offices.The focus will be on aspects of this material which are relevant for formation opportunities in-house (staff meetings, liturgies, prayer, assemblies, retreats, notice boards, etc.) as well as on avenues for further formation and PD beyond the workplace (District formation programs, Buttimer, BBI, etc.).It would be most helpful for participants to bring workplace 2017 calendars, staff and student development plans, themes that workplaces may be adopting in the coming year or years, and similar formation-related data.TimetableTuesday 22 November5:00 pmArrival, welcome, prayer, introductions5:30Outline of the program; readings distributed6:00Drinks, dinnerWednesday 23 November9:00 amPrayer9:10The Founding Story: that of De La Salle and other Founders10:30Morning Tea11:00The Founding Stories in staff formation12:30Lunch2:00Pedagogy3:30Afternoon tea4:00Pedagogy in staff formation6:00Drinks, dinnerThursday 24 November9:00 amPrayer9:10An integrated spirituality10:30Morning Tea11:00Integrated spirituality in staff formation12:30Lunch1:30 pmEvaluation and certificates2:30Depart(5:00 pmEnd of Year Mass, St Felix de Valois, Bankstown)Working time: 12 hours including pre-reading.FacilitatorsAmanda Proulx, John Cantwell fsc.Deadline for confirmed bookings: Friday 4 November.
