RE News

Welcome back and a warm welcome to all our new families! We look forward to a wonderful year together as the students and teachers continue the Faith story of our great school, St Patrick’s. The charisms of our founding Religious Orders, the Sisters of Mercy and the Christian Brothers, are an important part of the tapestry of our school and we are all bearers of the rich story of Catholic Education in Albury that began so long ago.

We carry on the grand traditions of our school at our Opening School Mass on Friday, 14th February. This Mass will begin at 11.45am in St Patrick’s Church. We invite all families to join us for this very special Mass. The investiture of our Student Councillors for 2020 will take place during Mass.

Please join us for a family BBQ after Mass. Lunch is free and expertly cooked by the teachers of St Pat’s!

Our new Sensory Garden will be officially opened during our family BBQ lunch gathering and Fr Joel will bless our beautiful new play area.
