An incredible example of how one personโ€™s initiative can make a meaningful difference in the community. We can come together to end hunger in our community, and we appreciate schools encouraging students for organizing food drive.

It is with the saddest of hearts that we share the passing of 2025 graduate, Owen Millington.

During his time as a Saint, Owen was known around the Performing Arts Department and the Tech Wing for his caring heart, willingness to always help and talents to build sets and fix things that were broken. He was a dedicated student who was always present and did not leave until the job was done. This past year, he left his mark on our school as a highly respected member of the Grade 12 Drama Class, an irreplaceable member of the โ€œSchool of Rockโ€ Crew and an incredibly skilled student in our Construction Classroom and on our Skills Ontario Team. His kind, welcoming and beautiful soul will be missed by all who were lucky enough to cross his path.

On Tuesday, August 19th, 2025 from 11am-2pm, our school chapel will be open and support will be available from our Thunder Bay Catholic District School Board Mental Health team. We invite any member of the St. Patrick school community to join us then for an opportunity to come together and remember.

We understand that grief can be incredibly challenging, especially in the case of a tragic loss. Our school is committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for those who are grieving. Please know that you are not alone, and we are here to help. If you are in need of support but cannot attend on August 19th, please reach out to Ms. Beach, Mme. Wowchuk, or Mental Health Leader Katie Matthews at [email protected].

Our thoughts and prayers are with Owenโ€™s family and friends. We want to share this Irish blessing for Owen, who will forever be a Saint. โ˜˜๏ธ

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
The rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
