Whole School Mass
To celebrate our new school year, St Michael’s will have a Whole School Mass THIS Friday the 14^th of February at 9:30 am. During the Mass Year 6 will also be presented with their leadership badges. After the Mass there will also be a morning tea. It will be a wonderful way to celebrate returning to school.

All are welcome to attend!

National ‘Apology Day’ 13th February 2020
On Thursday the 13th February, we mark the 12th Anniversary of the Apology to the Stolen Generations. In 2008, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd presented this apology in the Australian Parliament. We pause and acknowledge this day and pray that we will work together to mend all hearts of the people of Australia.
