FROM THE PRINCIPAL

"Many Wolves .... One Pack"

Term 2 - Week 4

Welcome to Week 4,

RIP Brian Burke

It was with a heavy heart our school community learnt of the passing of Brian Burke. Brian is the much loved husband of Mrs Robyn Burke who dedicated 42 years of service to St Nicholas, before her retirement in June 2022. Over the years, Brian also shared his time generously volunteering at St Nicholas School and within the parish.

On behalf of our school community we offer our condolences to the Burke family and keep them in our prayers.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,

and let perpetual light shine upon him.

May he rest in peace.

Amen.
