"Feed, Speed and Creed." Father's Day Breakfast and Liturgy - Thursday August 31st 7.30 am - 9.15 am 

FEED For Father’s Day 

I would love to hear from any mother’s/grandparents who want to help cook for the Father’s Day breakfast on Thursday August 31st. Everything will be set up – all you have to do is cook. Time to be there would be 7.30 am as breakfast starts at 8 am. 

Please volunteer here: Helpers for Dad's Breakfast on Thursday August 31st at 7.30 am 

 

SPEED After breakfast there will be games and art activities offered for children and their fathers/father figures to participate in! 

 

CREED At 8.45 am the Prayer liturgy for Dads/Father figures will take place finishing at 9.15 am. 

 

Can't wait to have you volunteer! Any time you can offer is better than no time.

 

Thanks so much to those who gathered for coffee and a chat yesterday! It is always good to connect informally - next Coffee Connect will be on 7th September.

You may also be interested in this initiative for parents being offered by the Parish. Joanna the Youth Ministry Coordinator is also a Life Coach and is keen to share her wisdom about raising faith filled and happy children. I will be there to start the night off with some tips about family bedtime routines and how prayer and meditation can be a part of this. To register see flyer.

Toddler Tales is on Every Tuesday from 8.45 - 9.45 am! We are growing as a group....

Come join me as I read a story with a tender tale to your children followed by craft and coffee! It's a great way for your child to transition to Kindy by making friends with those starting in 2024 (but it is open to anyone not just those associated with the school.)

 Where? In the glass room near the drive through. Check in at the office first please.
