Reconciliation
This week we have had many junior and senior students undertake the Sacrament of Reconciliation with Father Michael and our visiting priests, Father Dennis and Father Neville. The children were amazing in the way they embraced their sacrament and we thank the families for their dedication and support of the students during their preparation.
Prayer Gathering
This week Rachel and her Grade 5 students lead us in prayer about Reconciliation and next week Jade and her Grade 5 students will lead us in the theme of commitment.
All welcome.
Harmony Week
Harmony Week is celebrated from Monday to Sunday next week. March 21st is dedicated to celebrating Australia's rich multicultural heritage as "Harmony Day". In Colac and particularly at St. Mary’s, we are blessed to have a diverse cultural and linguistic community. This year, under the theme “Everyone Belongs,” we think of how we can better our world by being welcoming and inclusive people.
We are celebrating Harmony week with World Down syndrome Day with our lots of socks day, so please send kids to school in bright, mismatched and colourful socks.
