News from the Principal

Last Wednesday and Thursday night, thirty of our students celebrated their first Sacrament of Reconciliation. It was a very beautiful ceremony celebrated by Fr Paul Rankin and his fellow Dominican priests and brothers. I would like to acknowledge and thank Lisa McCormick, Caroline Price, Tess Corcoran, Taras Misiajlo and the parents for working collaboratively together in preparing the students for this very important Sacrament.

Friday we also celebrated St Dominic’s Feast Day with a whole school Mass. It was lovely to have some families join in our celebration. The spiritual experience was enriched by the exemplary way the students led us in prayer and the beautiful student voices in the choir.

I would like to acknowledge and thank Adrienne Veall in her preparation of the choir, the class teachers for preparing their students for the mass and creating the beautiful ‘A Heart that sees’ artworks.
Finally, I would like to acknowledge and thank Lisa McCormick and Caroline Price for all the planning and preparation for the Mass.
