3rd Sunday of Advent

This weekend we light the third candle on the Advent Wreath. It is called the 'Shepherd’s Candle', and is pink because rose is a liturgical colour for joy. It is meant to remind us of the joy that the world experienced at the birth of Jesus, as well as the joy that the faithful have reached at the midpoint of Advent.

Rejoice in the Lord always;

and again I say, Rejoice. 

Let your gentleness be known to everyone. 

The Lord is near

Dear Parents and Carers,

As the end of the year approaches and Christmas draws near, the teachers and children are preparing carols to entertain families over the next couple of days. Keep an eye out for the link in a COMPASS notification.

We thank all staff for their time and effort in preparing the children. We thank Mrs Riley for her work across the school and with the choir during the term. We also thank Mr Fox in bringing it all together and publishing for your viewing. 

Thank you

We congratulate Mrs Riley, Ms Hidegarde and the students in our choir on their wonderful performance at the Pearce shops on Monday afternoon. The group brought much joy to the carollers who gathered for the Twilight Community Carols.

COVID - 19 news

Catholic Education is sending out 5 Rapid Antigen Tests for each student in the coming days to support families as COVID cases increase in the ACT. These will be packaged in a brown paper bag that will be labelled with the family name. They will be sent home with the eldest child. We will send out a push through COMPASS to let families know when they are ready to be sent out.

Take care and keep safe
