Tuesday, 10 June 2025On 10 May, our students took part in the “2025 Vocation Carnival”, organised by the Diocesan Vocation Commission, at St. Paul’s Convent. During the event, students from various Catholic schools gathered to host game booths, creating a joyful and engaging atmosphere. We also had the opportunity to enjoy hymn-singing and meaningful conversations with priests and nuns. It was a truly wonderful afternoon spent in the spirit of community and faith.
We hope that more young people will be inspired to reflect on their journey with God and listen to His calling.

I found this carnival to be deeply meaningful and enlightening. During the event, I connected with students from various Catholic schools and welcomed many visitors to our game booth, including children and the elderly. Guiding them through the games, I learned I should be patient. I also visited the church, where the grand, reverent atmosphere allowed me to immerse myself in the richness of spiritual practice. Through the game booths, I not only deepened my understanding of Catholicism, but the event also helped me understand more about the significance of vocations. I also enjoyed the heartfelt hymn singing and profound conversations with priests and nuns. The Carnival benefited me greatly.

At our booth, participants were asked to judge various behaviours and traits, decide whether they were good or bad, and then throw a rubber ring into the corresponding location. While this may seem simple to many people, it can be quite challenging for people with disabilities. This was a reminder to us that small things can be great feats for others so when they successfully threw the rubber ring, we encouraged them with applause. This seemingly small gesture can have a profound impact, as we help boost their confidence and sense of self-worth. Through the activities of that afternoon, I realized that no matter how small an act of kindness, it could mean a lot to the recipient.
