On Friday, the 26th of July, our OLMC school and parish community came together to celebrate our feast day and to honour our grandparents on the Feast day of St Joachim and Anne, the parents of Mary and the grandparents of Jesus.
Our celebrations began with open classrooms where grandparents had the opportunity to read to their grandchildren, answer quizzes and create artworks. Perhaps it was the students who were the most excited, thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to spend time in their classrooms with their grandparents. This was followed by a beautiful Mass celebrated by Father Denis and Martinho.
Thank you to all of the grandparents who joined us for the special day. The children in our school are very lucky to have such loving grandparents, who after listening to children’s stories are wonderful cooks, great storytellers, super fantastic and energetic babysitters, love a variety of games and most of all spoil and cherish their grandchildren.

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.
