Celebrating Our Faith
SRC AND LEADERSHIP NEWS
Last Friday, St Joseph’s SRC and students leadership team received a visit from Mr Stephen Pares, the Executive Officer of St Agnes' Parish, to discuss all things pertinent to their leadership at school. His tips and anecdotes were invaluable.
Thank you for your time and contribution to our students at St Joseph’s.
ACCENDERE YEAR 4 RETREAT
Last week Mrs Blundell and some of our Year 4 students had the opportunity to deepen their own faith through the Year 4 Accendere Retreat. It was a privilege to spend the day with students from our other Parish Schools. We are extremely fortunate to be provided with these experiences by the Lismore Catholic Education Office and St Agnes’ Parish. The children had a wonderful day and their behaviour was a credit to them.
