“Saints for Teachers"
The theme this year for the Catholic Teachers Guild’s annual speaker series is ‘Saints for Teachers’. In partnership with the St. Monica Institute for Education and Evangelization, the CTG will be running five sessions, each of which look at the life and example of a saint involved with education.
Sessions will take place at De la Salle Oaklands beginning with mass in the chapel at 5:30 p.m. before the talk. Following the presentation, a light dinner will be served. The cost is $20 for each session or $50 for the entire series.
