Catholic Community Life
It is with deepest regret that we must announce the cancellation of the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation 2021 due to COVID-19 restrictions. We hope to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation for all candidates currently enrolled in the program during Term 1 of school in 2022. We will continue to pray for your children and families during this time of uncertainty.
Today our school is celebrated a virtual Socktober Day to raise awareness and money for the Kindergarten Centre run by the Good Shepherd sisters in Thailand. In Bangkok the Sisters of the Good Shepherd offer support to mothers and children from disadvantaged areas. They provide education, skills training for young women, health care for families, and early learning for infant children. Their actions speak of the compassion and mercy of Jesus, the Good shepherd, who says, “I have come that they may have life, life in all its fullness.”
Our school community enjoyed virtual Socktober activities with students discovering the wonderful mission work of the Good Shepherd sisters through 360 school tours, as well as reflecting on the rights of a child through literature and prayer.
Thank you to everyone for your generous donations. If you would like to donate, please follow this link:
