Whole School Focus: Come Holy Spirit

In Term 3, St Michael’s will continue with our Whole School Focus ‘Come Holy Spirit’ which aligns with the Year of the Holy Spirit. This Semester, we will be exploring the fruits of the Holy Spirit and how they can help and guide us. We will be focusing on the fruits of kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.  We will continue to use scripture to explore how the Holy Spirit is represented visually. This term we will explore the image of the Holy Spirit as a dove.

Winter Woolies Day

A huge thank you to our St Michael’s families for supporting our Winter Woolies Day last term as part of the Vinnies Winter Appeal. What a comfy, warm day we had in our warm woolies gear! We had social justice workshops increasing the students' awareness about the needs in our community and the good works of St. Vincent De Paul. Best of all we filled a whole van with our amazing donations!! Below is the email our school received from Sharkie and the team at Vinnies over the holiday break:

“I just wanted to say thank you so much for the amazing time we had with your school. Your students were amazing and the workshops went really well thanks to their participation and the presence of your teachers. We also wanted to say thank you for the donations that your students provided. They are going to be so useful for us and our companions. Our jobs wouldn't be possible without the support of schools like yours and for that we are grateful.

A huge thank you to our St. Michael's community for their kind and incredibly generous donations.
