COLLEGE NEWS
We hope all students and families enjoy their holidays and return refreshed and recharged for Term 3. We look forward to welcoming all students back to school on Monday 11 July.
COMMUNITY OF FAITH
As members of the Catholic church we are called to respond to those in need. As you would be aware homelessness in Queensland is soaring with many families experiencing this devastating crisis. We are able to assist by supporting the Vinnies Winter Appeal. All donations of warm clothes, blankets, winter foods eg soups, porridge sachets, tinned food, long-life milk or money are welcome. These can be left at the Vinnies Warehouse at 67 Gladstone Road, or at Holy Family Church during the Winter Appeal.
In Community of Faith news this week:
- Thursday morning Masses
- Year 7, 8 and 9 voluntary retreat
