Mini Vinnies Winter Appeal
This term, we are asking families to support the St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal. With over 3.3 million Australians living below the poverty line, including over half a million children, your support of the Vinnies Winter Appeal will provide much needed immediate help to people in our community.
During this time, we ask families to donate what they can. Some ideas are:
- Pasta and rice
- Cans of food
- Warm winter items like beanies, scarves, gloves, socks and blankets
- Toiletries such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste and deodorant
Donations can be made until Thursday 25 June and brought to your child's classroom. Our Mini Vinnie Leaders will then collect, sort and pack all the items ready to be collected by St Vincent de Paul.
Thank you in advance for your support.
First Eucharist Parent/Child Workshop
On Thursday 14 May we hosted our First Eucharist Parent/Child Workshop as our Grade 4 students are preparing to receive the Sacrament of First Eucharist later this term. We thank all the families who were able to come along and further develop our understanding of the Sacrament, as well as have some time to reflect together as families and a community.
Senior Level Class Participation in Mass
A friendly reminder that the Senior classes are participating in Mass over the coming weeks.
- 5/6SP - Thursday 14 May 9:15am
- 5/6MG - Thursday 21 May 9:15am
- 5/6ES - Thursday 28 May 9:15am
We congratulate 5/6SP on leading a beautiful Mass for our community yesterday.
After these classes participate in Mass, there is an opportunity for the students and families to share in a morning tea in the Church meeting room. We kindly ask each family to bring a small plate of food to share.
Please reach out to your child's class teacher or myself if you have any questions.
