Welcome back to Holy Name, where belonging, learning and serving is at the heart of all we do.

Welcome and Commissioning Liturgy

Today we celebrated our whole school Welcome and Commissioning Liturgy celebrated by our parish priest, the most reverent Fr Peter Street.

Begining with our Acknowledgement to Country read by Callen Ridgeway from 3M and Mrs Stephens, our new 2023 Kindergarten students entered the hall with their Yr 6 buddy and welcomed into our liturgy. Myra Gupta read our first reading and Vice Captains Artemisia Laurie and Jackson Paine read the Universal Prayers.  

The Staff of Holy Name were commissioned for 2023 and the Fr Peter after blessing the student leaders badges presented them to our Captains, Vice Captains, Yr 6 SRC and Sports Captains. Our leaders read their pledge of leadership for 2023. With our parent community with us we witnessed these students commit themselves to the service of others. It was a proud moment for our Yr 6 parents.

Thanks to Mrs Russell and Miss McKinnon for the support they both gave, in preparing our senior leaders for this liturgy. Thank you Fr Peter for celebrating our fisrt 2023 liturgy at the school.
