🔨💙 FATHER'S DAY CELEBRATIONS 💙 👨‍👧‍👦

What a wonderful morning celebrating the special dads, grandads and father figures in our school community!

The morning was filled with fun... a yummy breakfast, a paper plane flying competition, handball games and plenty of laughs at the Dad’s donut eating contest! 🍩✈️🎾

Dads then joined their children in the classrooms for a beautiful Father’s Day Liturgy led by our Kindergarten students.

A huge thank you to all the dads, grandads and father figures who attended and helped make the morning so special. We also extend our thanks to our Kindergarten and their teachers for leading the liturgy and to our wonderful parent helpers who assisted at the BBQ and the Father’s Day Stall. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Wishing all the amazing fathers, grandfathers and father figures in our community a very Happy Father’s Day for the weekend! 💙
