Dear Parents, Guardians and Community

2025 is a Jubilee Year for the Catholic Church world wide.

The theme for the year is,

'Pilgrims of Hope."

Welcome Back Everyone.

We hope you had a great break. Welcome to our new families, our Preps and 7 new families across other classes. It has been a busy break with the new school playground area under construction. Thank you to those families that have already donated some toys for the sand pit. This is stage one of our ten year plan and we thank our Parents and Friends for all the fundraising that has been done over the years that allowed us to do something substantial for our students.

Father Greg Dad's Night February 7 6pm
Father Greg would like to invite all Fathers at our School for a night at the Presbytery to welcome all new Fathers to the School and to get to know each other and the rest of the community. As we know, Father Greg always puts on a good show, so I am sure it will be a great night.
