On Tuesday 25th February we celebrated Pancake Day and raised over $400 for the St Vincent de Paul Bushfire Appeal.
Pancakes were traditionally eaten on the day before Ash Wednesday because they were a way to use up eggs, milk, and sugar before the fasting season of the 40 days of Lent.
It has been a terrible start to the year with the bushfires devastating the Eastern Coast of Australia and so much of our wonderful wildlife.
The Holy Family Community were determined to help this cause in any way we could, with the money raised going towards affected families who have had to leave their belongings behind.
The children had ‘stacks’ of fun ‘flipping’ out over their pancakes.
The generosity of our community is greatly appreciated. We would like to thank the parents and children who supported Pancake Day!

At our beautiful celebration today we reflected on the words of Pope Leo and how our school prayer captures this same message. 2026 is the year that we ask God to "fill our hearts with your love in all the things we do and say".

🌟 Random Act of Kindness Day - 17 February 🌟 Today is a reminder that even the smallest act of kindness can make a big difference. Kindness is one of the strongest tools we have to create safe, supportive, and inclusive environments for everyone. A smile, a helping hand, a kind message, or standing up for someone who needs support - it all counts. 💛 Let’s use today to start a ripple effect. 💬 Share a kind word. 🤝 Help someone out. 🌈 Make someone feel seen and valued. Together, we can build a culture where kindness is the norm and bullying has no place. What’s one small act of kindness you’ll do today? #RandomActOfKindnessDay #BullyingNoWay #ChooseKindness #SpreadKindness
