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.

Today we are filled with gratitude for the wonderful Dads that stepped up and provided, not only an amazing example to our young students, but also their time, support, and presence, helping to build a stronger sense of community and belonging within the OLMC School Community. They did an amazing job, finishing off the stall before 1pm. Thank you so much and we look forward to seeing you next year (Mrs Anderiesz will have a leader board ready to go!)๐คฃ

We were delighted to welcome back our students, staff, and families this week and hope everyone enjoyed a joyful and blessed Easter. Our first assembly for the term was held over Zoom, where we celebrated the achievements of our Merit and Star Card recipients โ congratulations to all! As we commenced the month of May, dedicated to Mary, students were reminded that they are welcome to bring rosary beads in a pouch or zip-lock bag to school to join in prayerful reflection during this special month. Wishing everyone a wonderful term ahead filled with learning, excellence and community. ๐๐

Today, we observe Good Friday, a sacred day in our faith. As a Catholic school community, we pause to remember the ultimate sacrifice Jesus made out of love for us all. On this solemn day, we reflect on His suffering and death on the crossโan act of profound mercy and redemption. Let us take this time to pray, to be still, and to draw closer to Christ, knowing that through His passion comes the promise of resurrection and new life. โBy His wounds, we are healed.โ โ Isaiah 53:5 Wishing our community a blessed and prayerful Good Friday.
