Confirmation at our Parish/School Mass for Term 4

We invite all families to join us in celebrating a special Parish/School Mass this Saturday, 20th October at 5.00pm. Four of our Year 6 students will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation during this Mass as some of these children were representing our school at the Tournament of Minds state finals in Sydney on the weekend of Confirmation.

We encourage the Year 6 students and their families to share in this celebration with their classmates.

October is Catholic Mission Month.

The theme of the 2018 Schools Catholic Mission Appeal is, ‘Healing a nation through Education’. This year we learn about life for many people in Myanmar. We learn how we can help heal a nation through education. We learn about the children at St John’s School in Hakha, Myanmar, who now have an opportunity to learn by experiencing, investigating, playing and questioning. We also learn about children at St Joseph’s Centre for Children and Adults with HIV/AIDS.

First Reconciliation

The Year 2 students have begun preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Please keep these children and their families in your prayers.

Important dates:

Parent/child meeting: Tuesday, 23rd October at 6.00pm in the Church. We look forward to seeing you there. (Week 2)

Picnic with Fr Joel: Wednesday, 14th November in Zone 4 from 5.45pm – 7.30pm.                 

First Reconciliation: Wednesday, 21st November at 6.00pm in the Church.
