Catholic Character

Firstly, congratulations to the Confirmation Candidates, sharing this special commitment to the tradition.

Fr Mathew celebrated our Feast Day this past Wednesday. 

Mass was shared with families and local parishioners witnessing the commitment of our school to the Catholic tradition. In his homily Fr Mat reminded the congregation of the importance of the presence of Christ in our lives, and the faith and trust St John Paul II had during his long papacy, in the Youth of our church and schools, they are the future. 

It was truly a sacred moment when Fr Mat presented the tokutoku to our Principal, Renee Hutchinson.


Following Mass the students participated in various community activities, Shave for a Cure - supporting the wider community, a rugby game against Grey High School, BBQ lunch and inter whanau group games.  

All in all a most successful celebration as the photos will attest.

God Bless

Abina Pope
