St Mary's Bulletin

We tell the truth and act honestly.

Thank you to everyone who supported our fundraiser for Lifelink. We raised a total of $212.65 which will be donated to Lifelink agencies who help people in need throughout Western Australia.

Well done to all of our competitors who represented our school today. Your sportsmanship was outstanding as always. Thank you to Mrs Crees for all your hard work in organising this event and to our helpers and supporters who made their way to Bruce Rock to support our team. Please see below for the results of todays events.

This is an important part of giving our students, parents and teachers a voice in improving the way we operate at St Mary’s School. We cannot stress the value of taking time out of your day to provide us with feedback in building a better school community, now and in years to come. All the information you need to complete the questionaire is in Audiri (Skoolbag).

The Feast of the Sacred Heart Mass will be on Friday the 16th of June at 9.00am in St Mary’s Parish. Our Year 1-2 class have been busy preparing the readings and would be delighted to see as many parents and friends support them as possible. Everyone is welcome and invited to attend. 

Our Year 6 students will be participating in a Confirmation Retreat on Friday 16 June. We wish our Confirmation candidates all the best for their upcoming sacrament. We invite and welcome all families to the Confirmation Mass on Sunday 18 June at 10.30am in St Mary’s Parish.

The LifeLink organisation was established by the Archdiocese of Perth in 1994 to provide for the ongoing financial support of agencies established or assisted by the Church to assist those most vulnerable in our community. These agencies include: Identitywa, The Shopfront, Centrecare Inc, Catholic Ministry for People who are Deaf or Hearing Impaired, Catholic Outreach, Emmanuel Centre, Daydawn Advocacy Centre, Emmaus Community, Centacare Employment and Training, and Samaritan Projects. Last year, LifeLink funded agencies reached out to help tens of thousands of Western Australian families and individuals in need. Thank you for supporting this as it gives us the opportunity to practise our vision of developing compassionate, resilient, confident and independent learners.

God Bless and have a lovely weekend with your families.
