A message from the Assistant Principal RIM

Dear Parents and Caregivers

Alleluia, He Is Risen!

Easter Sunday is the high point of the Church’s calendar and the pinnacle of Christian celebrations. During the holidays we celebrated Easter. All over the world, Christians boldly declared their faith: Jesus, the crucified one was no longer dead. Jesus is alive! He lives in glory with God and has breathed his Spirit of life into us. Because of Easter we need never be afraid. God’s love is stronger than death.

May Jesus, the Risen Lord, fill our hearts with love, joy and peace.

Walkathon – Friday 24 May

On Friday 24 May, we will have a whole school walkathon to raise money for Brain Cancer Awareness and Research. Further details will be available next week.

Mothers’ Day Liturgy

We will come together as a School Community to honour Mothers with a whole school liturgy in St Ignatius Parish Hall at 9am on Friday 10 May (weather permitting). You are all most welcome to attend. Following the liturgy, there will be a morning tea for Mothers which has been organised by our P&F committee and hosted by our Year 6/7 student leaders. Bridge Street students will be involved in Buddy Activities at William Street until 10:15am following the liturgy. Please join us.

A Prayer in Gratitude for Our Mothers

Good and Gentle God,

we pray in gratitude for our mothers and for all the women

who have joined with you in the wonder of bringing forth new life.

You who became human through a woman,

grant to all mothers the courage they need to face the uncertain future

that life with children always brings.

Give them the strength to live and to be loved in return, not perfectly, but humanly.

Give them the faithful support of family and friends as they care for

the physical and spiritual growth of their children.

Give them joy and delight in their children

to sustain them through the trials of motherhood.

Most of all, give them the wisdom

to turn to you for help when they need it most.
