Family and Faith

Welcome back to Term 3, I do hope that everyone had a wonderful Winter break and are ready for a busy term ahead. 

School Activities

Year 3 students celebrated a First Holy Communion Retreat Day and SPaR in preparation for making the Sacrament of First Eucharist this Sunday 3rd August. We ask you to please keep these students in your prayers as they continue their faith and spiritual journey.

Our Little Stars started the term off by sharing with the wider community the celebrations of the First Nations People. The children love sharing time and experiences together, building new friendships and gaining new skills and learning and we look forward to sharing many more throughout the year. Remember Playgroup is held each Friday morning in the lower parish centre- ALL ARE WELCOME!
