St Brendan's Catholic Primary School Annandale

Congratulations to our Year 3 students who received the Sacrament of First Holy Communion today in a sacred and joyful celebration. 🙏

Yesterday, our Year 3 students joined with their St Michael’s peers in preparation for their First Holy Communion this Sunday. It was a special day of prayer, reflection, and adoration, as students deepened their understanding of this important sacrament.
Students celebrated Mass led by Father Matthew and participated in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, with the day enriched by the guidance of the Sisters of the Immaculata. A meaningful and faith-filled step in their journey!

From active play to hands-on learning, every moment counts. Happy International Day of Play!

Protect Play, Protect Childhood 💛

Our next stop for our Stage 3 Spirituality Day was Mary MacKillop Place. It was a meaningful opportunity for students to engage with Catholic heritage, reflect on the life and legacy of St Mary MacKillop, and deepen their understanding of faith in action.

Throughout the visit, students participated in guided experiences that encouraged reflection, respect and connection to the values of compassion and service that underpin our school community.

Today our Stage 3 students began their Spirituality Day with an immersive experience at Sistine Chapel: Revelations.

Families were warmly invited to join us, sharing in the experience alongside students as part of our ongoing commitment to faith formation and community connection.

It has been a special start to a day of reflection, learning and shared spirituality for all involved.
