Our very own Lasallian Star

On Monday the 26th of August, students of SJI International were all stars.

1850 students from both the Elementary School and High School and approximately 220 members of staff, gathered on our new upper field with the ES students in green, and the HS students in white, to form a dramatic, living symbol of our Lasallian identity in the shape of a huge Lasallian Star.
 

 

This is part of our observance of the Year of Lasallian Vocations, commemorating the death of St John Baptist de La Salle in 1719, which represents the passing on to us of his legacy of educational service to young people.

The Lasallian Star is the official seal, the Signum Fidei, of the De La Salle Brothers and the worldwide Lasallian family.  We see this Star represented in the centre of the crest of SJI International.
