We opened Catholic School Week with a prayer liturgy prepared by Kindergarten.
Our federal MP Michelle Rowland attended the liturgy and presented children with Mercy Awards for their tireless work in looking after our environment.
Ms Rowland also presented St Anthony's with some new books and a special tree.
The tree was then planted in our Friendship Garden by Mrs Grieves and the "Wormies" Group.

Recently, our community lost a much-loved former staff member of St Anthony’s. We'd like to take this opportunity to remember and honour Ross Howse. Ross worked at our school from 2000 to 2021, serving our community with dedication, kindness and quiet generosity. He passed away after a long and courageous battle with cancer and will be fondly remembered for his laid back approach and the positive impact he had on the lives of students, colleagues and families over many years. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ross’s family and loved ones at this time. May eternal rest be granted unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Ross Howse 07/04/1959 – 29/12/2025

Transitioning smoothly into ‘big school’: What parents need to know
The first day of Kindergarten! It’s a milestone filled with excitement, pride and maybe a few nerves (for both you and your child!). Starting “big school” marks the beginning of a whole new adventure, and with a little preparation, you can help make those first weeks calm, confident and full of smiles.
