During Catholic Schools Week St Michael’s Primary School Kaleen held their annual Community Breakfast and Mass to celebrate the hope, joy and wonder of Catholic education across the ACT.

St Michael’s have been hosting a Catholic Schools Week community breakfast for over 10 years, bringing together staff, students, parish members, local businesses and members of parliament.  

“Catholic Schools Week is a special time in the year when we celebrate and give thanks for Catholic Schools – especially our own,” said Assistant Principal Damien Webb.

“It is a time to give thanks for the wonderful learning and teaching that takes place each day in every classroom.”

Director of Catholic Education Ross Fox spoke on behalf of Catholic Education alongside Education Minister Yvette Berry and Leader of the Opposition Alistair Coe MLA.  

Treasurer of the St Michael’s Community Jeremy Lane said that this year's theme of Discover New Horizons' was fitting for St Michael's as they begin a new chapter with a new Principal, staff members and families.

“Discover New Horizons is the challenge set before us as a council, as we continue to support this school to be a faith filled, innovative, engaging, supportive and inclusive place of learning,” he said.
