School Masses

Thank you to everyone for joining together to honour Grandparents day today. It was so heart warming to have you all there with our students. Congratulations to our Stage 3 and Early Stage 1 people for helping with the mass. 

Our next school mass will be Friday, 6 November and we will be back to our usual starting time of 10am. Our wonderful Stage 1 students will be in charge of the readings for this mass. We are also excited to welcome back Fr John McHugh who will be saying mass on this day for us, as Fr Damien will be away.

Farewell

St John's Parish is having a mass and morning tea on Sunday, 1st November at 10am to farewell two families who have decided to leave the Barraba area after many decades.

Gillian and Marty Unwin have been involved and supporters of our school since 1981, having taught many residents over the years! The town will not be the same without them!

Mike and Vicky Simpson have also been involved in our school since 1981, and have been wonderful members of the Barraba community.

We extend the invitation to all our families in the Barraba community to join us in acknowledging the contributions, friendship and long-lasting gifts they have shared with us in Barraba.

Angelus

We have started to say this prayer as a whole school community each day at 12.25pm. It is an opportunity to pause in our busy day, focus on our blessings and to take a moment for our faith and to decompress and, of course, pray.

God bless,

Deb McDouall
