We also connected this to environmental stewardship as Friday was the Spring Ember Day in the Church calendar dedicated to climate change, harvest and care for creation, as well as being focused on prayer

Fr Geoff Plant celebrated both Masses with us, delivering an amazing homily on love and how it can flourish when nourished with living water.

We also had a really pleasing number of dads volunteer for roles in the Mass, and many students stepped up to make us all proud, especially their dads. We thank them all. The fathers and sons blessed each other, and Year 12 gave a special blessing over all dads and father figures present in language.

Between the Masses all guests gathered for a breakfast prepared and hosted by the amazing members of our Parents’ and Friends’ Association.

As a community we remember all dads present with us and those who have already gone before us.
