School mass

Today was our final school mass for this term. Thank you to Mrs Phillips, our amazing young people in Year 1/2 and their helpers for leading this wonderful mass about how much we are all loved by God.   A special thanks to Grace and Ben for being such capable, reverend and confident altar servers for our mass.

Our first school mass for Term 3 will be on Friday, 1st August at 10.15am.  Everyone is very welcome to come along.

First Holy Communion

We look forward to celebrating Chase, Caspian and Monty as they make their first Holy Communion this Sunday. We invite our school families to come along on Sunday to support these three boys in this important milestone of their faith journeys. There will be a morning tea for everyone following the mass. 

What is a Jubilee?

A Jubilee is a special year of grace and conversion, involving prayer, pilgrimage and sacramental repentance, held every 25 years, or during other years as called for by the Pope. 

The most recent (ordinary) Jubilee celebrated was the Great Jubilee of 2000. The most recent Extraordinary Jubilee Year was 2015, the Holy Year of Mercy.

Jubilee celebration has biblical roots, and therefore it presents us with a wonderful opportunity to deepen our appreciation of those roots. 

Through a series of concrete rituals, acts and commitments, the goal of a Jubilee year is to inspire and encourage holiness of life among the faithful and therefore to strengthen the Church’s witness to God’s loving mercy in and for the world.

Consecrated persons are invited to live this Jubilee in the way of peace, as captured in the official motto shared by DICLSAL: Pilgrims of hope on the path of peace.
