CATHLOIC EDUCATION SANDURST – 2025 Theme: Pilgrams of Hope 

2025 is a Jubilee Year in the Catholic Church. Such a time is dedicated to reflecting on our faith and to focus on our spiritual life. Therefore, the Catholic Sandhurst is aligning its yearly theme with this special occasion within the Catholic Church. Pope Francis has invited us to become “Pilgrams of Hope”, we are encouraged to spread this message as we embark on a journey filled with hope.

Parents with students who have met the prerequisite conditions necessary to continue with our school sacramental journey in Grade 3 should have received an email towards the end of term 4 inviting them to participate in a pre-registration sacramental evening. This will take place ONLINE next Thursday evening. All responses to this survey have been noted and parents wishing to attend the pre-registration information session will receive a TEAMS meeting invitation on Wednesday.

BEGINNING of SCHOOL YEAR MASS – Wednesday 5th February @ 9.15am 

Our beginning of school year mass will be held this coming Wednesday 5th February. Sadly, Fr Minh will no longer be our school and parish Priest, he has taken up an opportunity to continue his missionary work in Kerang and surrounding area. On a positive note, we welcome Fr Boniface, who comes to us from Rutherglen. We look forward to meeting our new Priest and encourage families to come along and join us in welcoming Fr Boniface to Holy Rosary at our whole school Mass.

Classroom teachers will prepare and allocate various reading responsibilities to their students when their classes are scheduled.
