 Religious Education – Building a Foundation of Faith 

Thank you to everyone for your continued support in making our Masses and Liturgies so special, meaningful and prayerful for our school community. The way our students, staff, families and parish come together on these occasions is a true testament to the wonderful sense of faith, belonging and community that exists at St Mary’s. 

As a Catholic school, these moments provide us with an important opportunity to pause, reflect, pray and celebrate together. They remind us of the beautiful connection we share through our Christian values and the way these values guide how we care for one another, serve others and live out our faith each day. 

There is something incredibly special about seeing our children actively participating in our celebrations, reading, praying, singing, leading and contributing with confidence and reverence. These experiences help our students understand that faith is not simply something we learn about; it is something we experience, share and live together. 

Thank you to our families, staff, students and parish community for continuing to walk alongside us and for making these occasions such an important and treasured part of life at St Mary’s. 

Together, we continue to grow faith, connection, and love for one another.
