Mass (Foundation/Year 1/Year 2)

Parents and friends are most welcome to come to the celebration of the Mass next week, 17th September at 9:30am. Galilee (Foundation), Jerusalem (Year 1) and Damascus (Year 2) Communties are joining forces in the last week of term 3!

First Holy Communion Update

Our students, who are about to celebrate their FHC this weekend or next, have completed the next step in their preparation. They went over to the church this week (and last) to undertake Reconciliation. This is a great way to prepare for something important in your life. Catholics traditionally go to Reconciliation during Lent, in preparation for Easter and during Advent, in preparation for Christmas. But there are other times when it is important to reconcile, such as preparation for a sacrament. First Holy Communion is certainly one of those occasions. Reconciliation is also known as a sacrament of Healing - being your best to receive the gift that Jesus gives.  

Art Competition - Season of Creation 

Students were invited to take part in Catholic Earthcare’s Annual Art Competition, exploring the theme of Peace with Creation. Prizes include art supply vouchers. Finalists and winners will be announced by Caritas during the Season of Creation by Friday 26 September 2025.

Below, are the entries that were sent from our school to the judging panel this week. Good luck to all our budding artists...

Alara, Alessi, Amaya, Apeksha, David, Ivanah, Kiera, Mia, Michelle J, Michelle T, Naira, Raquel, Saanvi, Tanaya and Tashayla
