Friday Community Mass

Today, we remembered Paul Burnett, dad of Louis Burnett - Head Prefect (’25), as he has returned to God.  We prayed to God to give Josephine, Louis and their extended family comfort during their grief.

A big thank you to 11.1 and 7.1 for hosting our Mass this morning and to their PCG teachers, Mr Borrello and Mr Grey.  A special thank you to our Altar Servers and Extraordinary Ministers, who always serve our College with compassion and reverence.

Once again, it is lovely to see staff and parents at Mass.  Have a blessed and wonderful weekend.

Our Year 9 students met in the Chapel on Tuesday, 1 April for their first Mass as a cohort for 2025.  Thank you to Old Boy Matt Loo (’22) for playing the piano. Thank you to our Head of Year, Mr O’Malley and Mr Cooke’s PCG 9.2 who fulfilled all Mass roles with such reverence and expertise. A special thanks to all Year 9 PCG staff for all their support.  Finally, to our Year 9 Altar Servers, a sincere thank you.

Faith Prefects’ Rice Bowl Lunch

On Thursday at lunchtime eighty bowls of rice were served to students and staff in Centenary Park as a fundraiser for Caritas.  In many places around the world, this simple lunch is all that families have to eat, so the action was in solidarity with all those who live in poverty. 

Participants paid &5 for the bowl of rice and a banana and $456 was raised for Caritas Project Compassion. Thanks to Aurelio De Mattia. Aarav Bhandari, Rhys Davy and Luca Fowler for all the hard work they put into organizing and facilitating the event. 

One simple meal. One powerful difference.
