Reflection from Pope Francis for Lent

Fast from hurting words and say kind words.

Fast from sadness and be filled with gratitude.

Fast from anger and be filled with patience.

Fast from pessimism and be filled with hope.

Fast from worries and have trust in God.

Fast from complaints; contemplate simplicity.

Fast from pressures and be prayerful Fast from bitterness; fill your hearts with joy.

Fast from selfishness and be compassionate.

Fast from grudges and be reconciled.

Fast from words; be silent and listen.

School Cross Country Carnival

I would like to pass on my thanks to the many parents who were able to assist at last Friday's Cross Country Carnival. We had great support with course marshalls and place judging, as well as a lot of parents working hard all day to provide snow cones and other snacks for the students. Your assistance on such a hot day was greatly appreciated.

The carnival was also the first time that our school was able to use the twelve new shade shelters that were funded by the P & F. They looked fantastic all set up at Hurley Park and were well used on the day. Sincere thanks to the P & F for this very practical donation.
