MISSION

Today, 15 August, our school joined Catholic communities worldwide in celebrating the Feast of the Assumption of Mary, a holy day honouring Mary, the mother of Jesus, being taken body and soul into heaven.

This special day reminds us of Mary’s deep faith, her trust in God, and her important role in the story of Jesus. The Assumption is not just about Mary being taken to heaven; it’s also a celebration of hope, love, and the promise of eternal life for all of us.

Today, we prayed to Mary and reflected on Mary’s life and her example of saying "yes" to God. 

Mary’s life encourages us to be people of courage, kindness, and faith—even when things are challenging. As we teach our students to follow in her footsteps, we also pray that, like Mary, they grow in love, humility, and trust in God.

Mary, assumed into Heaven, pray for us. 

First Eucharist Preparation

Preparation is well underway for our students who will be receiving their First Eucharist (Holy Communion) on Saturday, 20 September 2025, at St John’s Church, Evans Head, at 5 pm.

The students will participate in three preparation sessions with Ms Wilkins, followed by a final meeting on Monday, 8 September at 3.45 pm, which parents are invited to attend.

This year, we are proud to support the following students as they prepare for this special Sacrament:
Abaigeal Ashton, Nancy Butler, Phoebe Jett, Jackson Marsden, Poppy Parkinson, and Eli Walsh.

We keep these students and their families in our prayers as they journey towards receiving Jesus in the Eucharist for the first time—an important and sacred step in their faith lives.
