Dear Parents and Friends,

Last Wednesday 1st November was All Saint’s Day. On this day we remember ‘all the saints’ - all holy men and women (officially venerated or not) and show gratitude for their heroic and virtuous lives. We joined the Parish in celebrating this day with Mass celebrated by Fr Paul. Year 5 led us through this celebration where we began Mass singing the Litany of Saints - which is a prayer that recognises some of the saints throughout the history of the church.

St Mary of the Cross. Pray for us.

St Joseph. Pray for us.

St Bernadette. Pray for us.

St Anne. Pray for us.

St Christopher. Pray for us.

St Peter and St Paul. Pray for us.

All holy men and women. Pray for us.

The month of November is traditionally a time where the Catholic community remembers those who have died. All Soul’s Day on the 2nd November follows on from All Saint’s Day. We think about and pray for our loved ones who are now in heaven. At the end of this month we start the new Liturgical Year with the First Sunday of Advent.

This week Mrs Duffin is taking some well deserved Long Service Leave - we are looking forward to hearing about her adventures in the Northern Territory when she returns! 

Thank you for your continued support,

Kate Jennett
Assistant Principal
