This week, we recognise the Feast Day of our school saint – St Bede. Today we attended a Liturgy at the Church in honour of St Bede, followed by morning tea on the Church Lawns. Thank you to all the families and parishioners who joined us in this celebration. A special thank you to Trish Young for providing cupcakes for all students and to the staff, families and parishioners who provided morning tea.

In St Bede’s tradition, each year a student from each grade level receives ‘The St Bede’s Award’. This award recognises students who demonstrate Christian leadership and dedication to their studies – much like St Bede did! The awards were presented at our St Bede’s Feast Day Liturgy.

We congratulate our 2024 award recipients:

• Kinder – Evelyn Paciorek
• Year 1 – Kyrie Klay Sanchez
• Year 2 – Aurelia Buzby
• Year 3 – Archer Watson
• Year 4 – Eden Bunn
• Year 5 – Lana Fitzgerald
• Year 6 – Rose North

Yours in faith,
Shaye Cooper

Dear God,
I know you are with me and love me.
God of mercy, you inspired St Bede with the love of education. Help me to learn by the example of St Bede and be enlightened by your wisdom.
May our school year be full of wonderful learning opportunities that help prepare us for life beyond school.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
