Weekend Retreat at Robe
We are excited to announce that there will be a Weekend Retreat held for any students in Year 8-12 from 3-5 August. The retreat is open to anyone who thinks they might enjoy a weekend away in Robe to recharge their batteries. The time can be used to focus on what is important in life and spend some time discussing and reflecting on the issues of life with other young people as well as walking on the beach and other fun activities. Students who would like more information are asked to collect a note from their homegroup teacher, or parents can contact Michelle Coote for an expression of interest form.
Winter Sleepout
This Friday night a group of Year 12’s and their teachers will sleep outside in the College grounds. The Winter Sleepout has been organised by a group of Year 12’s to raise awareness of homelessness in our community and to raise money to support Vinnies in the work they do in our community. During the Winter months Vinnies are most grateful for donations of warm blankets, cans of food that can be heated (ie soup) and money to purchase swags for those sleeping rough.
Sacrament Information
This weekend the following students will celebrate the Sacraments of First Holy Communion and Confirmation.
These celebrations will be held at both the 6pm mass on Saturday and the 11am mass on Sunday. All families from the College are encouraged to attend this special occasion and celebrate with the children and their families.
