Lots of happy students enjoyed cinnamon donuts last week at school. Donuts will again be on sale on Friday 29 May at lunch time.
We are pleased to share plans to put together a St Brendan’s School Community Recipe Book. Details are being finalised for a way families can contribute their recipes to the book. Once the book is finalised it will be printed and available for sale as a fundraiser.
