REC News

Welcome back to the beginning of a new school year. Like all beginnings, many of us, including our students, come to the start with a little nervousness. We also come full of hope. Hope for all we can achieve throughout the year.

Pope Francis has chosen the theme ‘Pilgrims of Hope” for the Jubilee Year which occurs every 25 years throughout the worldwide Catholic Church.  He states that, “In the heart of each person, hope dwells as the desire and outcome of good things to come.” Personally, I hope for a wonderfully fruitful and joyous year for all members of our school, our parish and our wider Grenfell community.

We are delighted to extend a warm welcome to all of you to our upcoming school Opening Mass on Wednesday, 19th February, at St. Joseph's Church at 10 am. This special occasion holds great significance as we come together to celebrate the beginning of a new academic year filled with hope.

During this special mass, we will take the opportunity to acknowledge our 2025 School Leaders, we will welcome all the new families and students who have joined our community and the staff will be provided an opportunity to witness to their commitment to the education of your children.

This opening mass is a time for reflection, a coming together to support one another in our hopes for the future year ahead. As we journey together as pilgrims of hope, may we continue to show love and compassion for all those we meet.

 See you all on Wednesday, 19th February, at St. Joseph's Church at 10 am.
