Confirmation Information Evening
On Monday evening, we had the parent information session for Confirmation. Once again, Mario from 24:7 Youth Ministry lead the presentation and was engaging and informative. Mario has presented at all the information sessions this year and 24:7 have run our retreats, with the Year 6 retreat coming up next week. We are proud of the partnership that has been built and the effort they have gone to working with our students. Aloyse and Anthony from 24:7 run our local youth ministry on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Friday of each month. They are doing a fantastic job coming down to the school to engage with the Year 6 class. The youth group is going strong with around 30 attendees, so we encourage any Year 6 students or past students to come along and join in.
Mother’s Day Breakfast activities and Mass
A beautiful morning as mothers, grandmothers and other special ladies in the life of St Michael’s students came down for a light breakfast and activities. Mothers could be seen being pampered with a massage, having their nails painted and getting some happy snaps in the photo booth. This was followed by a beautiful Mass. We appreciate the efforts of the staff to organise and especially those of Miss Pin for her efficient organisation and coordination of the event.
