What's Happening at Holy Rosary
Week 7, Term 2 2023
Last week we acknowledged our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander brothers and sisters as part of National Reconciliation week. This week we are privileged to be able to continue the role we play when it comes to reconciliation through our commitment to the Catholic schools FIRE carrier program. Six students and four staff members will be commissioned during our school assembly this Friday 9th June. We welcome Troy Firebrace to this event and note a change in start time of 2.30pm. I encourage as many families to come along as possible, it will be a fabulous way to begin the long weekend.
Sunday was the feast of the Holy Spirit and this next announcement is a very timely reminder of how the Holy Spirit is at work within us, guiding us to seek God and understand what he is asking us to do. Congratulations to Tom Kelleher and Mitch McCashney on receiving the school’s Catherine McAuley award this term. The way the boys engaged with another younger member of the community was duly noted in public and retrospectively reported back to the school. May the presence of the Holy Spirit that was shared through this encounter continue to invoke the same spirit in the hearts and minds of all our students.
Now that our enrolment period for 2024 has concluded we have begun the process of offering positions to both existing and new families of Foundation students. We also look forward to beginning the planning and preparation that is required for next year's group of Foundation students.
