Catholic Education Week

Catholic Education Week Mass

Nathan and Elsa (see above) represented our school at the Mass on Wednesday at St Francis Xavier College, Beaconsfield. There must have been close to 1700 people at this Mass: students from primary schools, secondary schools, teachers, principals and clergy. Congratulations to Nathan and Elsa who did a marvellous job of carrying the school banner in procession with the the other schools.

Bishop Greg was a bit jetlagged after coming back from the Vatican only a few days before but that didn't stop him from presiding over a truly joyous celebration of Catholic Education in our diocese.

Big Brother and Little Sister schools visiting!

St Thomas The Apostle School was very pleased to be able to host the sports event for our Parish partners schools St Peter's College and St Josephine Bakhita PS. 

Due to the damp weather the planned sports at St Peter's was moved to the St Thomas the Apostle basketball court allowing the children to enjoy the events planned by the Year 11 Sports and Recreation students.
