St Augustine's Day

It was a joy to celebrate the Feast of Saint Augustine as a College and Parish community on Monday.

The cupcakes (baked by many parent volunteers) were enjoyed by our students prior to Mass. Thank you to those who helped to provide this special treat.

We were thrilled to see so many families join us for a special picnic lunch on the College grounds.

Saint Augustine of Hippo - Pray for us!

Lone Pine Ceremony

Our Years 5 and 6 students represented our College beautifully at our annual Lone Pine Ceremony on Wednesday 30th August.

The ceremony included a wreath laid by Year 6 student, Ava C, whose father has served in the ADF for 20 years. Thomas S (Year 10) wore his ADF Cadet uniform and raised the flag. Some of our Student Leaders led us in prayer and other speeches and our beautiful College Choir sang many appropriate songs. Remi's performance of Travelin' Soldier was a beautiful moment as was the Legacy torch raising.

A beautiful morning tea was shared following the Ceremony which had to be held indoors due to poor weather.

'It's going to be hard to beat that next year'

Gary King, Legatee

'The Student Leaders spoke so well, the music was sensational and the torches wonderful. St Aug's students and staff deserve all of the praise given.'
