Shining Bright @ Madonna!

Jesus said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,

baptizing them in the name of the Father,

and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit,

and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you.

And remember,

I am with you always,

to the end of the age."

Mathew 28:16-20

Thank you to all of our families who have kept up-to-date with their school fees and ensuring there is a $0 balance on them!

In these last few months of the school year, it is important that all school fees are paid. This means that field trip fees are paid before your child's field trip in order for your child to participate.

To pay for your child's school fees or check your balance, please click here to access your PowerSchool Parent Portal

If you have any questions about field trip fees, please contact your child's teacher. Should there be a challenge paying school fees, please contact Mme Gravelle at 780-467-7972.

Sunday Mass: 8:30 AM, 10:30 AM, 12:30 PM and 7:00 PM.

If parents have any questions, they can also contact the church by phone 780-467-5470 or email sacraments@olph.ca
