Year 12 Retreat

In week 8, Year 12 staff and students spent a peaceful 3 days at Cave Hill Creek, in Beaufort Victoria. This was an opportunity to step away from the pressures of work and study and enjoy time together. Students participated in a range of activities that helped them reflect upon their lives until now and prioritise the things they value as they move through the rest of Year 12 and life beyond school. Thank you to Chloe Shanahan for coordinating this event and to all staff who attended as leaders. The feedback from students and parents indicates that this is a significant event in the faith and life formation of our young people.

This year, Palm Sunday is celebrated on 14 April, which is the second Sunday of the month. Family Mass is normally celebrated on the fourth Sunday, however; due to the school holidays we will have it on Palm Sunday this year.
