Religious Education

Mrs Trish Mitchell
Assistant Principal & Religious Education Coordinator

Lord,
We welcome this new school term with open hearts and grateful minds.
We thank You for the blessings of the holidays and the opportunity to come together again as a school family.

As we begin this new chapter, we ask that You guide our students in their learning, bless our teachers in their dedication, and watch over our community. Fill our classrooms with kindness, patience, and curiosity. Help us to shine Your light in all that we do, treating one another with respect and compassion.

We place this term into Your hands.
Amen

St Carlo Acutis Relic

What a truly moving and spiritual experience at our school last term! We were blessed to host the relic of Blessed Carlo Acutis, marking a deeply special moment for our community. Our Stage 3 children showed exceptional reverence throughout the visit, listening intently to an inspiring discussion from Monsignor Anthony and his team. In a beautiful act of faith, the students wrote heartfelt prayers that will now travel all the way back to Assisi to be placed directly at Blessed Carlo’s tomb. We were incredibly proud of our students for their maturity and devotion. Blessed Carlo Acutis, pray for us.

Sacrament of Reconciliation

A beautiful milestone was reached at the end of last term! In Week 11, a number of our students took a significant step in their faith journey by making their First Reconciliation.

We could not be prouder of the way our students conducted themselves; the Mass was truly beautiful, and the reverence, maturity, and respect shown by everyone involved was a joy to witness.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to Father Vic and Father Curran for presiding over this special sacramental Mass and for guiding our students through this grace-filled experience. A big thank you to Miss Melissa Buckland and the Stage 1 team for preparing the students so well. Please keep these children in your prayers as they continue to grow in their faith.

St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal

A massive thank you to our wonderful students, families, and the wider school community for your incredible generosity during our recent St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal. Thanks to your enthusiastic support, our recent PJ Day was a fantastic success, raising a wonderful $276! In addition to these funds, we were absolutely blown away by the huge amount of non-perishable food items donated by our families. These funds and food have now been delivered to our local St Vincent de Paul volunteers, where they will bring comfort, warmth, and relief to those less fortunate in our community this winter.
