Holy Week
Next week is Holy Week, I pray that your Holy Week be a sacred time and may God bless us as we make this journey to Easter Sunday together.
For Holy Week various year levels are completing Holy Week tableaux.
Parents are most welcome to come along and watch these dramatisations of the most significant events in the Catholic tradition.
These will take place each afternoon, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 2:30 pm, on the oval, weather permitting.
After Easter on Tuesday 2nd April, there will be a special whole school Liturgy celebrating this joyous occasion. This will take place on the Oval (weather permitting) at 9:00am

National Closing the Gap Day 2024 - March 21st
On National Closing the Gap Day, we at St Brigid's show our support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health equity, as we value health equity in Australia as a fundamental right for all.
Harmony Day
At St Brigid's we celebrate our beautifully diverse community daily, learning from one another about our different faiths and different cultures. We also take the time during Harmony Week in Australia, to display our culture and heritage through the wearing of traditional dress and/or a 'splash of orange'. This year this will be held on Friday 22nd March. During this day, our year 6 leaders have planned and organised various activities including dances, and games from their cultures to share with their houses.
