What a beautiful start to the Easter weekend we had, with our Easter Pageant on Thursday. Thank you again to the staff and students for all the work that went into producing this. It was a great reminder of the true meaning of Easter before the hot cross buns and chocolate kicked in. Thanks to Trish Fitzsimons, our resident photographer, for capturing the morning so well.
Congratulations to Franchesca Blank and James Aubrey who were both received into Church over the Easter weekend.
Great news from our builders - we will be moving classes back into the Junior Block on Wednesday, 28th April. If you have any spare time on that day to come along and help move furniture and resouces back into these rooms, please let us know so that we can confirm times, etc.
We will also be officially opening and blessing the Junior Block on Thursday, 6th May at 9.30a.m. The building will be blessed by Archbishop Paul Martin and you are all very welcome to come along and join in the blessing and morning tea. Please mark this date in your diary now.

Give Mum the best gift this year…
Make this Mother’s Day a special one with a High Tea here at school! The Milestone Homes High Tea is an opportunity for our children and the significant females in their lives to come together and enjoy each other’s company.
This not-to-be-missed event will be held on Saturday, 8th May at 3pm in St Theresa’s Church Hall. High Tea will be served and we will have a guest speaker.
Tickets are $20 per person (non-refundable) and can be reserved by depositing the total amount to: St Theresa’s Catholic School Plimmerton 12-3254-0109325-000 with your child’s name and “High Tea” as the reference. Tickets can then be collected from the school office in the first week of Term 2.
There are limited tickets available so get in quick!
