St. Robert Bellarmine - Chicago

It has been an amazing and busy year in our Preschool and Pre-K4 classrooms. It has been exciting to watch the growth our students have made this year and it is hard to believe that the school year is winding down. We have some exciting things to look forward to in the month of May. Spring is in the air and we are spending some more time outside, taking walks and playing. Our walks involve looking for the growth of flowers, hearing birds chirp, and going on bug hunts. We also are very excited to play in our Learning Garden. We learned about first responders and made posters and cards for them. We also discussed helping others and packed lunches with our prayer partners for Uncle Pete’s Ministry earlier this week. In addition, we talked about ways to help our Earth.

Congrats to these two members of the SRB class of 2025 who were recognized for their academic achievements at a recent honors assembly at Notre Dame High School.
Way to go, Cooper Lyons (Summa Cum Laude) and Ben Hargesheimer (Magna Cum Laude)! 👏

Earlier this week, students made 400 sack meals for Uncle Pete's Ministry as part of an all-school service project, followed by a reflection on the importance of giving back, living generously and supporting all human dignity.

Our Bruins brought home more hardware at the second meet held last Sunday! Congrats to all our athletes for a job well done.
