MERCY AWARD: 

Congratulations to all the students that received the Mercy Award for displaying ‘Courage’, at our first assembly last week. 

Our next Mercy Award will be focusing on the quality of ‘Compassion’. This quality embraces the action of kindness, care for others and a desire to help people in need. Compassion is empathy in action and connects beautifully to our upcoming Caritas Australia Project Compassion Appeal that we will be involved in during this Lenten season.  

The ‘Compassion’ Mercy Award will be presented at our next assembly on Friday, March 6th. 

Project Compassion: 

This Lent, we are called to Unite Against Poverty through Caritas Australia’s Project Compassion. By taking home a Project Compassion donation box, you’ll be answering the Gospels’ call to care for our global family and walk alongside the most vulnerable. Your generous support this Lenten Season will enable Caritas Australia to provide life-changing support to communities facing poverty, food insecurity, lack of education, and water shortages, while building resilience against future challenges. Together, through faith and action, we can bring hope and opportunity to those most in need. 

Please give generously to Caritas Australia this Lenten season and help vulnerable people around the world. Project Compassion 2026 reminds us that the good we do today will extend and impact the lives of generations to come. Together, we can help vulnerable communities face their challenges today and build a better tomorrow. 

You can donate through Project Compassion donation boxes, which have been sent home with each family this week. 

Donations will be accepted until the end of term 1. 

Thank you in advance for your generosity. 

Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday: 

This week we came together as a school community to celebrate Shrove Tuesday. The students enjoyed a tasty treat and learned about what this special day means before the Lenten season begins. 

On Wednesday, we celebrated Ash Wednesday Mass as we marked the beginning of Lent. Having a cross marked by ash on our foreheads, represents mortality and penance, and symbolises we belong to Christ, who died on the cross. 

CONFIRMATION AND EUCHARIST DATES: 

The dates for the Confirmation and Eucharist ceremonies are Saturday May 30th  at 6pm and Sunday May 31st at 11am.  

A Parent Information Session will be held on Tuesday 24th March at 5:00pm. It is essential that at least one parent/guardian of each candidate attends this meeting. It will cover the essential information and process of Sacramental participation, as well as provide you with the opportunity to fill in all required enrolment forms/documentation.
