Catholic Character

We held a special "Welcome Back to School Liturgy" on Friday, 2nd February.  Father Patrick blessed everyone.

Ash Wednesday Liturgy - Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent:

Lent is a special time when we look to God for forgiveness and reconciliation. It’s time for us to think about how we can grow more loving by following Jesus’ way. A time when we try to do our best and live as God would want us to live. We had a very special Liturgy where we reflected on how we can do better.
Palm Sunday - Thank you to Room 7 for their dramatic portrayal of Palm Sunday, which helped us understand the final week of Jesus' life.

Pasifika Liturgy - We had a beautiful liturgy on Friday, 24th May to celebrate all Pasifika cultures.

It was an extraordinary liturgy what struck us all was the fluency and confidence in our students using language and delivering language.

We are super grateful to Julius for preparing the liturgy with the students.

The staff at Sacred Heart Cathedral School were so proud of all who was involved.

The students were incredible with their singing and sharing of blessings and karakia. Special thanks to Geraldine, Frankie and Adele who organised and served morning tea. Thank you to everyone who took time out of their busy day to support us.

The Middle Syndicate raised $848.40 for Caritas, through their two bake sales at the end of the year!  A big thank you to all our families who provided baking for this and to the families who gave their children money to purchasing the baking!
