Regional Mass

On Wednesday August 15 we will celebrate the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This feast day is one of only 2 holy days of obligation on the Australian Catholic church calendar – the other being Christmas Day. It is on this same day we will celebrate a Regional mass with St Anthony’s School, Millicent and Mary MacKillop Memorial School, Penola, with both schools joining us for mass and activities after mass.

Mass will be held at 11:00am in the Barrie Holmes Stadium and we would encourage all members of the school community to join us for this celebration.
