Grade 6 students, from Holy Cross Elementary School and St. Dominic’s Elementary School, were bused to Assumption School on Wednesday and welcomed by our amazing AJSH student leaders. After gathering in the gym for introductions, trivia, and prizes, students rotated through exciting stations completely planned and led by our student helpers. This included school tours, dodgeball and other gym activities, as well as games and icebreakers led by YLL (Youth Liturgical Leadership). We wrapped up the morning with a pizza lunch before our guests headed back to their respective schools. What a fantastic day of connection and fun! A big shoutout to our student leaders for creating such a warm, welcoming, and memorable experience for our future crusaders!
Grade 10 students from AJSH enjoyed a wonderful field trip to the Career Expo in Bonnyville on Thursday. The students were able to experience some hands-on learning about exciting career pathways and opportunities in the Lakeland!
On Thursday, two of our amazing students helped lead the way in honouring the Moose Hide Campaign — a national movement to end violence against women and children. They prepared and shared fresh bannock with their peers and handed out moose hide pins as a symbol of their commitment to creating a safer future for all. We’re proud of their leadership and the message of respect and reconciliation they shared with our school community. 🧡🦌🍞 #MooseHideCampaign #StudentLeadership #ReconciliationInAction
That’s a wrap!
AJSH students spent the morning exploring future pathways at the Lakeland Regional Career Expo - asking great questions, making connections, and discovering new possibilities for their future!
Sharing the Faith: Celebrating the Discipleship of Catholic School Teachers
Teachers and principals from all schools gathered for Mass and a Sharing the Faith celebration honouring Year 1 and Year 2 teachers who are growing in their vocation and embracing what it means to be Catholic educators.
From praying before games and exams to leading music ministry and creating space for spiritual reflection, these teachers are living the mission of Catholic education each day. Their work is already making a meaningful difference—helping students feel seen, supported, and connected to their faith in ways that last a lifetime.
Their commitment to forming the whole child, mind, body, and spirit - through Gospel witness and intentional Catholic teaching exemplifies faith in action.

Lakeland Catholic Schools Mourns Pope Francis
Novena for the Repose of His Holiness (Day 9)
Merciful and loving God, We come before You with hearts full of gratitude and sorrow as we remember Your servant, Pope Francis. You called him to be a shepherd to Your people, a voice for the poor, and a sign of Your mercy to the world. As we entrust him to Your eternal care, we ask You to welcome him into the joy of Your heavenly kingdom. Grant him peace, and give us strength to carry forward the light of his witness. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Prayer for the Church: As we commend Pope Francis to Your mercy, we pray for the Church he loved and served. May the Holy Spirit guide those who will choose the next pope. May the Church continue to shine with the light of Christ, inspired by Pope Francis’s life of service, humility, and love.
Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory Be…
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, And let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, Through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
