CHANGE TO THE SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION
Attention Year 6 families: PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF TIME AND LOCATION OF OUR CONFIRMATION CELEBRATION IN AUGUST.
2025 Sacrament of Confirmation: Sunday 24th of August, 1.30pm @ Kolbe College
STOCK THE PANTRY FUNDRAISER
Our Annual St. Vincent De Paul Food Drive "Stock the Pantry" is now complete.
With such amazing donations we have raised enough food to serve over 100 families within our parish and school community.
Our local St. Vincent De Paul contact Bessie commented on how wonderful it was to see our school community come together for a great cause. She was moved to tears when speaking at our Mass on Wednesday and wishes to THANK everyone for their kindness and compassion during these time.
Our Social Justice leaders moved the donations into the Parish Office and the donations are now being organised into hampers to send out to the community.
ALTAR SERVICE MINISTRY
Congratulations to our newest set of Altar Servers at OLPS.
After a 4 week training course with a workplace assessment, they have passed with FLYING COLOURS and graduated as our lead servers for 2025.
More training opportunities will arise next Semester as we welcome our newly initiated Year 4s (and some Year 5s) who have just received their First Holy Eucharist.
