2^nd Rite of Reconciliation – Wed 18^th Dec,

St John Vianney’s Church, Waramanga, 7pm

The 2^nd Rite of Reconciliation is often celebrated in parishes during Advent and Lent. This communal form of the Sacrament of Penance begins with a celebration of the Word, followed by a call to repentance. Private confession and reconciliation follow. This is remarkable opportunity for us to know and love the forgiving power of God in the personal life of each of us.

Private Piano Tuition for 2020

Private Piano tuition is again being provided at the school next year. Mrs Hildegarde Mendoza will be droping one of her days of teaching and Mr Michael Dooley will be joining the piano teachers. 

Mr Michael Dooley

I am a professional pianist, composer and teacher based in Canberra. I have a wide range of musical experience and skills including 10 years of teaching at Canberra Music Tuition and Marist College, playing jazz and classical music, and composing for the screen and for the concert hall. In 2019 I was awarded the Citynews artist of the year prize and also received an APRA-AGSC award for best music for children's television for the score of "The Pilgrims Progress" animated feature. One of my greatest joys is helping young musicians at the beginning of their musical journey, encouraging them to explore the enjoyment and creative satisfaction of expressing themselves through music while developing sound technique, reading and aural skills. I will be teaching at Sacred Heart school on Tuesday mornings from 9 to 11 a.m.
