After a few false starts and a few tense moments of uncertainty, we were finally able to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation, on Friday 13th August with Bishop Karol and Father Jim, at All Saints Catholic Parish.
On Monday June 28th the Year 12s climbed aboard the big bus and made their way to the Pichi Richi Campsite, where they spent both Monday and Tuesday in refection. The days provided students with a unique opportunity to refresh and regroup during a very busy time of the year, whilst also engaging them in a number of reflective activities centred on ‘Our Call to Love’.
