Prayer

 Acknowledgment of Country

We turn our hearts and minds to the people of the Yorta Yorta nation, who have occupied this country for thousands of years. 

We pay respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging, and commit to walking alongside Aboriginal Australians in truth and justice. 

Lenten Prayer

God of all love, 

We remember that on the night before he died Your son, Jesus, prayed  that his friends ‘may all be one.’  

Yet we see so much division in the world. War, conflict, violence and hatred  must all distress you. 

Millions of people suffer  when they don’t have peace and respect. They lack the necessities of life: food, water,  health, education and security. 

We pray that we may all  Unite Against Poverty this Lent.  May our support for Project Compassion be a sign to ourselves and others,  of our hope for a better world. 

This Lent, we pray that our dedication  to prayer, fasting and almsgiving will help restore your vision of justice and peace. 

Guided by the Holy Spirit,  we pray in Jesus’ name,

Amen.  

School Theme 2026

This year our school theme is: Seek Peace and Pursue it.   For leaders, educators, students, and families, this theme is both a challenge and a compass. It reminds us that peace is not the absence of conflict, but the presence of justice, mercy, and love. It calls us to be peacemakers in our schools, homes, communities, and hearts. And it affirms that the pursuit of peace is not optional, it is essential to the mission of Catholic leadership. 

In 2026, may we not only seek peace, but pursue it with courage, humility, and hope.

Keep In your Prayers and Thoughts... 

To any of our students, families, staff and school community who may be grieving the loss of a loved one.

To all our students and families who are currently unwell.

To all in communities close to us affected by Bushfires, we pray they be comforted by  generosity, love and care.

All our families, we pray to keep them safe and healthy as we commence this school year
