Grandparents' Day 👫💫

Our school community warmly celebrated Grandparents' Day with a beautiful liturgy led by our Year 1 students. It was a wonderful opportunity to come together in prayer and give thanks for the love, wisdom and guidance that grandparents and special family members bring to our lives. Following the liturgy, families were invited into our open classrooms to share in the children's activities before gathering together for a lovely morning tea. It was a joyful morning filled with happy smiles and excitement. We were grateful to welcome so many special family members into our school community 🙏😊
