Operoo Issues
We acknowledge that some issues have arisen recently with our communication platform Operoo. Our team has been working diligently to ensure it is up to date and that any problems are resolved.
To work around the current issues, Operoo communications are being sent for each student within a family, meaning families will receive multiple notifications for the same event. We apologise for these duplications, but doing so ensures all families are receiving important communications.

Church Altar Serving 2025
We are seeking students who may be interested in Altar Server training for 2025. Training will be held on Tuesday 25th March in the Church at 2.00pm.
Why Altar Serve?
Well, active participation in altar service provides a wonderful opportunity for ongoing catechesis for young people, supporting them in deepening their understanding of Liturgical practice. It also teaches great communication, teamwork, self confidence and responsibility. It is a fantastic opportunity for students to participate and be involved in their school and Parish community.
Students who have already trained are also encouraged and invited to train as a refresher.
If your child is interested in this training or you have any questions please contact Rach Chapman, Kylie McGlade or Loretta Shannon at the College.
