St Vincent De Paul Winter Appeal       

Our school is participating in the annual Vinnies Winter Appeal. We are collecting tins of food to share with those in need in our local community.  All donations are gratefully accepted.  We will be delivering them to our local St Vincent de Paul distribution centre in Week 4, so if you have a spare tin or two, please send them to school.

Confirmation

Students from our school, along with children across our parish, are preparing to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation.  This is the second of three sacraments of initiation into full membership of the Catholic Church.

Students will prepare with their parents using the Let’s Celebrate program.  The children will meet at school each week to share the work that they are completing at home with their families. 

Homelessness Week

Week 3 of this term is Homelessness Week.  Senior students are learning about the impact of this issue in our local area.  They are participating in the creation of a display that represents their awareness of this problem, which will be displayed in the foyer of the Cathedral soon.  

As we endeavor to stay warm, please keep those less fortunate than us in mind and, be generous in any way that you can.
