Our Lady of Mercy

Dear Parents and Carers

Tomorrow, students from Pre-Primary to Year 6 will compete in our school’s Cross Country event at Hudson Park from 11am to 12.50pm. Parents are always welcome to attend to support their child.

Our Year 5 and 6 girls came third in the interschool’s Soccer Carnival last week. The organiser of the event commented on the amazing school spirit shown by our team, which was simply outstanding. Our students enjoyed the day and learnt so much about team work and resiliency. We are all very proud of their efforts.

On Friday we have our Year 4 students leading our whole school Mass. All parents are invited to attend. Mass starts at 9.00am.

Also on Friday, our P&F are running our annual Mother’s Day stall. We have a dedicated P&F who take time out of their busy days to enhance our community by organising this stall. You can show your appreciation for their efforts by giving your child money to purchase a Mother’s Day gift.

I wish all Mothers and mother figures in our school community a wonderful day on Sunday, when you are celebrated by your loved ones for your significant role in raising and nurturing children.

God bless you all.

Ondine Komnick
