Prayer

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus,

I consecrate myself, my family, my home,

everything I have and everything I am,

to You forever.

Please protect and bless me, my family

and all those dear to me.

Amen

Dear St Martha’s Families

A big thank-you to all the Parents who volunteered at (and came to watch) last week’s Athletics Carnival and to the many parents who attended yesterday’s wonderful reading workshop with Mrs McKeown.

Sacred Heart of Jesus’ Solemnity

Tomorrow (Friday 16 June) is the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Here is a video on how to make Sacred Heart of Jesus’ pancakes if you’d like to make them with your children tomorrow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKVMKfIm7HU

If you would like to do the Enthronement of your home to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in June (month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus), please email elena.razzoli@syd.catholic.edu.au by Monday 19 June 2023 so that I can send you a pack with all the info and the prayer.

Initialit Reading Workshop

Mrs McKeown, congratulations again on your extraordinary work and presentation! This morning, the parents were still talking about how great it was!

Thank-you

Many thanks to the parents who have already emailed me to let me know their interest (and preferred day/s) in volunteering (making hot lunch and hampers) at a local Charity: St Merkorious, in South Strathfield (https://stmerkorious.org.au/), one morning after school drop-off.

If you would like to come and volunteer at St Merkorious in South Strathfield and haven’t emailed me yet, please email elena.razzoli@syd.catholic.edu.au by this Sunday (18 June) stating what your preferred weekday/s to volunteer at St Merkorious will be, many thanks.

Finally, many thanks to all the Parents who have already completed their TTFM survey, we’re very grateful to you all. If you haven’t completed it yet, we would be very thankful if you could please complete it today. It is very brief. Thanks so much for your feedback.

Wishing you all a very blessed Solemnity of the Sacred Heart tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing all the Year 3-6 Families (and any other families and parishioners) at the 10am Family Mass this Sunday followed by morning tea,

Mrs Elena Razzoli

Family Educator
