Our Faith Journey
Welcome to our RE community — where faith is shared, lived, and celebrated together.
Welcome to a new school year. We are delighted to welcome our students and families back to our school community and to extend a warm welcome to those joining us for the first time.
As we begin the year ahead, we look forward to working in partnership with you to support your child’s learning, wellbeing, and growth. Together, we aim to nurture curious minds, caring hearts, and a strong sense of belonging within our community.
Thank you for the trust you place in us. We value your involvement and look forward to a year filled with learning, connection, and shared moments of joy.
Wishing you and your family a positive and rewarding year ahead.
Gospel Reading
Mathew 5:13-16
Jesus teaches that his disciples are to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
I wonder why Jesus chose salt and light to describe his followers?
I wonder how salt changes food, even when we can’t see it?
When have I helped make a situation better, like salt adds flavour?
Attending St Peter's parish mass
Students from 3-4 A will be participating in Holy Mass on Monday, the 9th of February at 9:00 a.m. It is a school expectation and part of the curriculum which brings us together as a Parish and School Community.
The students need to be at school by 8:40 a.m. to head off to the Church by 8:50 a.m. Should your child arrive after the scheduled time then they will be directed by office staff to go to 34R.
If any parents/carers would like to attend Mass you are most welcome, just come directly to St Peter’s Church at the scheduled time.
Thanks for your support and cooperation.
Kind regards,
Ms Abrahams and Mrs DeVisser
