Mr Butts' Announcements

Reconciliation Week

Reconciliation Week concluded on Friday with a special breakfast for our aboriginal students and their families.  Mrs Dyke shared some photos of her recent trip to Lake Mungo where she learned about the ancient history of the area.

The whole school then took part in a Reconciliation Rally where we wore the aboriginal colours and marched along McLennan St and around the school. It was a wonderful success and the students had a great time chanting and raising awareness for Reconciliation. I hope you saw the great article in last week's Shep News with the fantastic photos of the march.

Mass for the Poor

Our annual Mass for the Poor is taking place this Friday 24th June in the church.  Thank you to those families for the donations that we will present to Vinnies for their Winter appeal during the mass.

First Eucharist

Congratulations to the children who recently made their First Eucharist.  It is a very special time for themselves and their families.

First Reconciliation

Tonight we have a number of children making their First Reconciliation.  We wish them every blessing on this significant night for them all.
