A warm welcome to St Mary’s School for 2023 to all parents, students and staff. A special welcome to our new Kindies and new families. Jesus always welcomed EVERYONE without exception. “When the crowds learned it, they followed him, and he welcomed them and spoke to them ...” (Luke 9:11).  With Jesus as our example, we should never be shy about welcoming others, whether it’s welcoming friends into our home, visitors into our school and church, or saying hello to a stranger.

In 2023 let us all strive to keep up St Mary’s tradition of being a welcoming community.
