Working Bee - Parish and School

Thank you to those families who are available to attend the Working Bee this Saturday. Our plan is to focus on the gardens at the top carpark and the memorial garden in front of the Church. We will complete weeding, review any large branches to remove and then focus on mulching the entire area from the library courtyard gate up to the carpark. If there are eager weeders we will also tackle some of the front garden beds. Angela will be in contact with families to confirm if trailers for green waste and pressure washers are needed. We look forward to seeing you all at 9:00am on Saturday morning. 

Grandparents Day

We look forward to celebrating Grandparents Day next Friday. This year our Grandparents Day has been moved to 11:30am to reduce traffic congestion at the beginning of the day and allow the grandparents to share a picnic lunch with their grandchildren. We would like to remind you to reconsider bring foods with nuts, dairy and eggs due to allergies. 

Here is the timetable for the day:

11:30am - Grandparents Gather in Holy Faith Hall for Centered in Faith hosted by Kindergarten at11:40am

12:00pm - Harmony Day and Grandparents activities in Classrooms

1:00pm - Picnic lunch in Courtyard
