Welcome to Week 9 - Gospel: Matthew 9:36‐10:8

The harvest is rich but the labourers are few

There is an immense opportunity to help,  teach or change the lives of many people, but there are not enough workers willing or available to do the work.

Ultimately, it serves as a call to action. It reminds us that having great potential means very little if there isn't a dedicated group of people willing to do the hard work to realise it.

Upcoming SHINE Day School Celebration- June 16

We are excited to invite you to our SHINE Day Celebration 2026, a special day dedicated to recognising and celebrating the unique gifts and talents of every child. Throughout the day, students will participate in a variety of engaging activities, including music and performance workshops with Gen Bryant, who will inspire our students to sing, create, grow in confidence and truly shine. 

Our students will be asked to dress in shiny sparkly clothes or even a splash of it for the day.

As a Catholic school community, SHINE Day is also an opportunity for students to reflect on how their personal talents and gifts can be used to serve others and bring God's light into the world. Through Scripture activities and faith-filled experiences, students will explore Jesus' message in Matthew 5:15: 

"Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." 

This reminds us that God calls each of us to share our talents, show kindness, and make a positive difference in the lives of others. By allowing our light to shine, we strengthen our Catholic identity and help build a community of faith, hope and love.

We warmly invite parents, families and friends to join us for three special parts of the day:

• 9:00am – Whole School Introduction with Gen Bryant
• 10:30am – Family Shared Picnic (please bring your own lunch and picnic rug to enjoy on the school green; in wet weather the picnic will be held in the Durkin Hall)

• 2:20pm – Whole School SHINE Concert in the Coghlan Centre, showcasing the talents and learning of our students.

   

Families are reminded to please sign-in at reception when attending special events at school

We look forward to sharing this joyful celebration of faith, community and learning with you as together we encourage our students to let their light shine.

"Let your light shine before others." – Matthew 5:16
