Kindergarten gets a thumbs up from new students
St Anthony’s Primary, Girraween welcomed over 50 new families to the school community with an evening celebration on Friday 21 February.
New Kindergarten students showcased their talents, performing a new song for staff and families. The event was a great opportunity for parents to share a meal and meet teachers and other families at St Anthony’s.
Principal Attila Lendvai, who has joined the school community this year, said the annual tradition is important in building a strong school community and an invaluable opportunity for new parents to get to know teachers.
‘The evening was a great success and we’re looking forward to continuing to work with and involve parents on many occasions throughout the year,’ said Attila.

Students participated in a prayer service 🙏 led by Faith in Action students and Fr Joby. Catholics believe that Mary was taken up into heaven by God ✨, not just her soul, but her whole body too, because she was so pure and full of grace 💖. We learnt how Mary is a model of: 🌸 M – Mary is the Mother of Jesus 👶 — and also our spiritual Mother. 💞 A – Act with Mercy. Mary was kind and gentle to everyone 🤝. 📿 R – Rosary. When we pray the Rosary, we think about the special moments in Jesus’ life ✝️ and remember Mary’s love ❤️. 🌟 Y – Mary said ‘Yes!’ to God 🙌.
