Year One has created a spectacular bulletin board reminding us of the three pillars of Lent. We endeavor to develop a closer relationship with God through fasting (giving up), almsgiving (giving to others), and prayer. Our 40 days should be filled with reflection, service, and prayer.
Yesterday our Year One students visited Benevolent Living to partake in interactive activities that foster connection and creation whilst engaging with the Hybrid Greening Art Exhibition and the artists. Year One performed some of their favourite songs for the residents and enjoyed a green jelly cup at the end of the morning. We are very grateful for the friendship, connection, and learning resulting from the intergenerational experiences at Benevolent Living. I would particularly like to thank Eleanor Thomson, a member of our school community and Benevolent Living Arts Activation and Lifestyle Officer, for her tireless work to make this connection and experience possible for both students and residents.
Parent Information Sessions
The Sacramental Program for 2023 is about to start with our ‘Parent Information Sessions’.
In 2023 the north and south side Sacramental Teams will work in conjunction to bring everyone a consistent program across all the Catholic Worshipping communities for Rockhampton.
Therefore you can attend sessions at either venue allowing greater flexibility for families.
Parent Information Sessions will be held:
Tuesday 7 March at 5.50pm St Joseph’s Wandal Hall
Tuesday 16 March at 5.30pm Holy Family Church
A parent must attend one of these sessions (children are not required) to learn important information about the program and receive essential paperwork.
If you have not previously filled in an ‘expression of interest’ form for this year’s program please scan the below QR code and fill in your details to get on the Sacramental Program email list.

Save the date for our 2023 learning festival. Join with us for two days of fun and learning. We are currently seeking help from you. What skills do you have that you could share? It would be fabulous to see some community run sessions as well as the wonderful ones presented by our amazing teachers. The theme is ‘Festival of Excellence’ so basically anything would fit. Contact your class teacher to discuss your amazing ideas.
