Today we gathered together to celebrate the gift from God to us all – our mothers.
It was a time to reflect on how important mothers are to our lives. A mother’s love for her children is an amazing thing and truly comes from God. So let us reflect and thank God for the gift of our mums.
The altar was decorated with symbols:
To begin we bring forward symbols to tell the story of our Mums
A big heart is a symbol of the great love our Mums have for us and the love we have for them.
The watering can reminds us of all the care our Mums give us to make sure we grow and glow.
The box of tissues represent the times mums are there to dry our tears when we are not happy.
The iron symbolises reminds us of all mums do to make sure we always look our best.
The rolling pin for all the food mum cooks and packs for us.
The apron thanks mum for all the time you spend cooking, cleaning and taking care of us.
The picture of Mary symbolises Jesus’ Mum . Like Mary our mums share their unconditional love with us.
After mass the Mothers, grandmothers and parishioners joined together to have a morning tea.
We would like to wish all mothers, grandmothers, godmothers and special women in our lives a very happy Mother's day.

✝️ God Day – Stations of the Cross ✝️ At the end of last term, our school community gathered for a reverent and moving reenactment of the Stations of the Cross, as our students retold the story of Jesus’ Passion and Death. Each class prayerfully prepared a station, bringing the Scripture to life through drama, reflection, artwork and song. As we journeyed from one station to the next, we were invited to pause, reflect and enter more deeply into the love, sacrifice and hope at the heart of this sacred story. This powerful experience has continued to shape our learning this term, as students now reflect on the story of the Resurrection and what it means to live our faith in action — walking alongside others, showing compassion, and bringing hope to our community. We thank our students, staff and families for their thoughtful participation in this special moment of prayer and reflection.

What a brilliant day for our annual Cross Country Carnival. This year we held two components a competitive race for student wishing to qualify for the Diocesan Carnival and a Fun Run event for those who just wanted to have fun with their friends doing a physical activity. There was certainly a fun carnival atmosphere for our event with children cheering on the serious competitors. The Fun Run saw children running, skipping and even a few penguin walkers. The teachers and even Fr Alby joined the fun. A huge thank you to Mr Pearn and Mrs Paine for their organisation and all the parent helpers who helped with track supervision.
