Class Masses
This term we are looking forward to starting our class masses!!
Each class plans, leads and participates in a Class Mass. This has been a long standing tradition at SJV and has become a highlight students look forward to each year. Class Masses take place on a Friday at 9:00am.
The students, with their teachers, plan the themes of the Masses thinking about what they are learning in class as well as the Catholic Liturgical calendar.
At the end of each Mass, students come to the staffroom to enjoy a morning tea with their parents. We request that students bring a plate to share with a list of ingredients for those with allergies.
Please see the roster for class Masses below. I would encourage parents to pencil in these dates.

Project Compassion
Thank you to families for their very generous donations which go toward Caritas. Your money will be used to help those less fortunate or effected by natural disasters.
We are in the process of counting the collected money and look forward to letting everyone know the final figure soon.
