Promoting Kindness

Mrs Cheryl Leggatt's Year 8 RE class have been learning the importance of promoting and spreading kindness this Term. Her students distributed message of kindness throughout the College last Thursday through posters and chalk. Thank you to these students for brightening our day.

Youth Group

Last Friday we had the OCC 2021 Mini Olympics at Youth Group. The afternoon started with students making team uniforms for one of their team members out of newspaper. Students then marched in for the opening ceremony and the athletes were welcomed to the competition. Japan, New Zealand and Scotland went head to head competing in volleyball, rowing, soccer and Olympic trivia. Japan were victorious in the end and presented with the gold medal followed by New Zealand in Silver and Scotland in Bronze. A highlight of the afternoon was the tasting of snacks from 9 different countries. A great afternoon was had by all. The OCC Youth Group runs every Friday afternoon from 3:30-5pm in U11, all students are welcome.

Year of St Joseph

Saints Mary and Joseph Cathedral Parish

Keeping in touch with what is happening in the Cathedral Parish is easy through their website and Facebook pages.

With such a difficult year it has been harder for parishioner's to give to the parish through the plates, particularly when the church was closed. The Parish account details are available on the Parish bulletin.
