Principal’s Message
Dear Parents and Carers,
Our staff wish you all a restful and school Easter holiday break.
As we journey through the sacred season of Lent, we are invited to pause, reflect, and grow closer to God through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It is a special time for our school community to deepen our faith and open our hearts more fully to the love of Jesus.
Lent is not just about giving something up - it’s about making space for God in our daily lives. Whether it’s through kind words, small sacrifices, or reaching out to help others, each of us can make a difference in our school, our homes, and our world.
Here at St Mary’s, we encourage our students to live Lent with intention - by being kind friends, generous helpers, and thoughtful listeners. Through acts of love and compassion, they are walking in the footsteps of Christ.
May this Lenten season be a time of grace, growth, and transformation for all of us. Let us support one another in faith as we prepare our hearts for the joy of Easter.
Finally, thank you to the families and helpers who so generously supported our Easter Raffle. Our helpers were able to make a large number of prizes from the donated items.
Warm regards
Jacki Moore
Principal
