From the Principal 

 

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

 

Welcome to the final newsletter for the school term. 

Holy Week @ St Simon’s

The week, families are invited to join the St. Simon’s Community in the celebration of Holy Week.  As a school community, we will gather on Monday, 25th March at 2:15 pm to experience and participate in a dramatisation of The Stations of the Cross, led by our Year 6 students. 

 

I encourage all families to consider the ways in which you can celebrate this central part of our Catholic Faith by attending the Easter Liturgies and Masses. All are welcome.
