Exciting News!

The library the Parish of Holy Cross has been using as a Mass Centre will finally become the learning space it was intended to be during the next few weeks. The Parish celebrates its last Sunday Masses with us this Sunday, February 25th. We are really looking forward to creating a vibrant space where you can read and relax, play board games with your friends or use the computers at lunch and recess and where great learning will take place in many areas during the school day.

We look forward to this exciting change and already have a few volunteers from Year 5 who would like to help us with those changes.

We congratulate the parish on finally being able to participate in the Eucharist in their own Church and wish them the very best as they finally say good-bye to us!

Library Opening

In a few weeks we hope to have our library fully operational as the Parish of Blessed John XXIII will move into its new church and facilities. We have been looking forward to this for a long time and cannot wait to install our new shelving and place all the books we have kept hidden away in cupboards for all the Holy Cross children to read.

In the future we hope this library will truly become a place of learning, using both digital and print media, and quiet recreational activities for the children. Hopefully only 4 weeks to go!!
