Principal's message

Loving God, 

help our St. Bernard’s students preparing for Reconciliation 

to come to know that you love them all totally and unconditionally. 

Help our community to encourage these children to grow in love and to learn how to say sorry, knowing that you always forgive.

 Give us the courage to pray with these children and to share our faith with them as we journey together. 

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Dear Parents, Guardians and Special Friends

Welcome to week 2 of term 4

Our children preparing for the Sacrament of Reconciliation this week learnt about the Choices we make and how these affect us and others. 

They are discovering that good choices bring us closer to God.
