Term 3 Virtues and Magis Awards

Term 3 Virtues and Magis Awards

Each term we acknowledge the work our ākonga have been doing to achieve personal Magis, whether academically, or through their commitment to the 7 virtues.  These are the 3 theological virtues of Faith, Hope and Love and the 4 Cardinal Virtues of Prudence, Fortitude, Temperance and Justice.  When we display these virtues it is an indication that a person is directing their lives towards God.  

Congratulations to all our award recipients.
