Dotty For Vinnies

A huge thank you to everyone who supported our Mini Vinnies winter appeal. Your effort in wearing polka and helping us to create our magnificent art installation is really appreciated. We were delighted to have such a positive response. Your contribution will make a significant difference to someone in our local area who needs the support of the St Vincent de Paul Society.

We are so grateful to Mrs Ng for her leadership and creativity and for making our budding artists so passionate about the project. The appeal was a huge success and we couldn't have done it without your support.

Father Dan's 10th Anniversary

We are delighted to congratulate Father Dan on his ten-year anniversary as an ordained priest. Fr Dan's dedication and spiritual leadership has inspired so many of us and his unwavering service reflects his passion for the church and God's word.

You are all invited to the 10.00am Mass on Sunday 09 July to express our gratitude and heartfelt thanks for his continuous service. Following the Mass there will be a morning tea in the hall and it would be wonderful if you could come along and bring a plate to share.

Let us make this celebration a true reflection of our appreciation of his selfless contribution to our beautiful parish.

Please keep Fr Dan in your prayers.

We are celebrating Grandparents!

Where: The Quad

When: Wednesday 26 July @8.50am

On the 26th July we celebrate the feast day of St Anne and St Joachim, the parents of Mary and the grandparents of Jesus.

As St Anne and St Joachim are also considered the patron saints of Grandparents, the students and teachers at St Patrick’s would like to invite all of our Grandparents to join us for an assembly, open classrooms and morning tea.

The assembly will begin on the Quad at 8.50am. Morning tea will be served in the hall from 10.00am - 11.00am.

We would be grateful if families could bring a plate to share with our grandparents. These can be left in the hall from 8.40am

 Tea and coffee will be provided.

 Unfortunately, students are not able to attend the morning tea as they will be busy in class at that time.

Please RSVP using the Google Form Link.

Thank you in advance for your generosity.

Have a wonderful holiday.

God Bless,

Ann Woodhouse, Family Educator
