Last Friday, our school community gathered for a beautiful Mass of Farewell to help us say goodbye to our old school building on Ralph Street. We gave thanks for the many memories, friendships and blessings that have shaped our journey. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Fr Walter for presiding over this special celebration and helping us reflect on all that we have shared as a faith-filled community. We were also incredibly grateful to welcome so many special guests, former staff members, parents and past students who joined us for this significant occasion. Your presence was a wonderful reminder of the lasting impact our school has had across generations. As we look to the future, we carry with us the stories, traditions and spirit that will always remain part of our community. We are so excited for the next chapter as we move into the new building on Darcy Road. 💙❤️ #MassOfFarewell #FaithCommunity #TogetherWeGrowAndRejoice #SacredHeartFamily
