Term 3 Family Mass - Saturday 16th August 2025 at 5:30pm
A reminder that this Saturday is our Term 3 Family Mass at 5:30pm. Looking forward to seeing those who can make it on Saturday. Remember too, to bring a plate to share after mass as we will gather in the Undercroft for a chat and some hospitality.
100 days of Kindergarten
On Friday, Kindergarten were fortunate that Fr Pat came to visit to share the Parable of ‘The Mustard Seed’ Matthew 13:31-32.. Fr Pat explained how like a seed, over time we grow and are nurtured. He connected the theme to the fact that the students have now been at school for 100 days and have grown and learnt so much since they started back in February. The students together with their parents and some grandparents too, then decorated 100 felt shapes to represent their 100 days of school and attached them to their in class ‘Mustard Seed’ tree.
Father's Day Keyring making
It's that time of year again for keyring making! For new families to our community, each year parents are invited to gather to make keyrings which are sold at our Father's Day stall. The proceeds from the keyrings sold go towards our outreach projects for example the Sydney Vinnies Brekky Van, Blanket making for the homeless and sandwich making for the Lexington Hub in Maroubra. The last workshop date will be Tuesday 26th August 2025 - 2:30pm - 3pm. If you would like to participate, please email me direct

HSC / Graduation Prayer Packs
A reminder for those families who have volunteered to write a card and provide some chocolates for the Year 12 homeroom at Brigidine, please ensure these are returned to the school office at your earliest. These will need to be packaged next week(Week 5) for delivery to the students in Week 6. Thank you to those families who have agreed to be a part of this important initiative.
Save the Date!
I will lead a Guided Christian Meditation at Coogee Beach on Thursday 11th September 2025 starting at 9:30am. If you missed the Term 2 in Class SPaR’s, you may want to come to this one. All parents welcome to attend. Refer to the flyer for more details.
I recently read a very interesting article written by Michael McGirr, in the Spring Edition of Australian Catholics - Six questions AI cannot answer. Check out the article if you have a minute, so very interesting and so very true!
