Farewell to Father Joseph

At this Sunday's St Agatha's Parish Mass at 10:45a.m we will be officially farwelling Father Joseph. It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to him after ten years at our parish. He has provided families, students and staff from both primary schools and secondary schools with great wisdom, knowledge and guidance. His greeting was always with a great smile, encouraging comment or even a joke. We will certainly miss him and pray that his transition to St Mary's Parish in Bairnsdale will bring him great joy and contentment. Don't forget us Father Joseph!! You are always welcome back for a visit.

 

With every clergy departure is an opportunity for the parish and the schools to welcome new faces. With this, we welcome back Father Antony Rebelo as our new Parish Priest. Father Antony was the assistant Parish Priest at St Agatha's several years ago. We also welcome Fr Prabhu Antony as Assistant Parish Priest.  We look forward to working with them both throughout the year.

Ash Wednesday Mass

We will be celebrating Ash Wednesday Mass in our school hall on Wednesday 14th February at 12:15p.m. Please join us to celebrate the beginning of our Lenten Season.

The 2024 Sacramental Timetable is now available. Please take the time to view the attached timetable for next year's Reconciliation, First Eucharist and Confirmation scheduling.

 

Please note, there has been a change since last year, to the Confirmation Ceremony date, due to the Bishop's availability.

 

 

A hard copy of the Sacramental Timetable has also been sent home to all Year 3-6 students for your reference.
