Dear Parents and Carers,

Firstly, I would like to thank Mrs Bridget Bradley and Ms Hayley Millsom for their generous support in sharing the REC role throughout Term 3 while I stepped into the Acting Assistant Principal position.

Term 4 has begun with great energy and is already shaping up to be a busy and joy-filled term!

Staff Spirituality

Last Monday, our staff gathered for our annual Spirituality Day — a pilgrimage through Braidwood that invited us to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the story of hope that helped shape our Catholic community. We are deeply grateful to Mrs Mandy O’Brien for sharing her time, wisdom, and family connection to Fr Edward O’Brien, a founding figure of faith in Braidwood during the 1850s.

I would also like to sincerely thank Mrs Bridget Bradley and Ms Hayley Millsom for assisting in the planning and guiding of this reflective and faith-filled day.

Congratulations

We extend our warmest congratulations to Dominique, Stuart, Ruby, Hazel, and Hamish McAllan on the safe arrival of Poppy Adelaide McAllan, born on 14 October.
We look forward to meeting the newest member of our St Bede’s community!

School Events

Our Term 4 calendar is quickly filling with many exciting school and parish events.
Below, you will find information about the first few weeks of Term 4 — there is plenty more to come later in the term! We hope to see you at these upcoming events.

Yours in faith,
Shaye Cooper
Religious Education Coordinator (Acting)
