Wreath Making Workshop

Thank you to all the parents and students who joined last Tuesday afternoon 25th November 2025 for our Christmas Wreath Making Workshop. We learnt about the wreath and its connection to our Catholic faith before putting our creative talents to work. There were many unique creations and all the wreaths were so different. Hope everyone enjoyed the experience and that your wreaths are now proudly hanging on your front doors as a sign of welcome or displayed on your kitchen tables to signify celebration in the upcoming Christmas Season.

Sacred Heart Parishes Christmas Carols

Sunday 7th December 2025

It’s finally here!! This Sunday will be the most spectacular Christmas Carols you will ever attend held in Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Church starting at 5pm. Based on last year's experience the Church was full so to avoid standing for the performance, I recommend you arrive early to secure a seat. Our StMM School Choir will be participating in the Carols collaborating with the OLSH School Choir. It is set to be a special afternoon. Don’t miss out.

Little Sisters of the Poor Christmas cards

A reminder to all families who have volunteered to complete a Christmas card for a resident at Little Sisters of the Poor, to please return them to the school front office as soon as possible, as we will be visiting the residents next week to sing carols.

Pope Francis students at Little Sisters of the Poor

Last week our Pope Francis students attended Wednesday Mass at Little Sisters of the Poor. Mass was celebrated by Fr Pat and the students were very reverent receiving a special blessing as they embark on their high school journey in 2026.

Christmas at the Cathedral

Wednesday 17th December 2025

One again this year, the Parish is organising a FREE bus to Opening Night at Christmas at the Cathedral. The bus will leave from outside OLSH Parish and return after the light display. Those who attended last year will agree it was spectacular. If you are interested in travelling on the bus, please register via the QR code on the flyer.

Family Christmas Initiative 2025

Over the next week, each student will receive a Family Christmas Initiative. It will differ per year level and it will be a fun way to learn about 'The Birth of Jesus' for the younger students and 'The Magi' for the older students. Make sure you check your child's bag for this activity. I encourage you to complete it together as a family as we prepare for the birth of Jesus.
