🙏 Together in Prayer for Pope Francis 🙏 With heavy hearts, we join the global Catholic community in mourning the passing of Pope Francis, who passed away on Easter Monday. As a community of faith, we reflect on his enduring legacy of solidarity with those in need and his tireless advocacy for the care of our common home, the Earth. 🌍💚 Catholic Schools in our diocese, united in prayer, honour the life and teachings of the Holy Father, who inspired us all to reach out in love and compassion, especially to the marginalised and vulnerable. 🕊️ Jack de Groot, CEO of Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese, shares a personal memory from his time as CEO of Caritas Australia: "I had the great joy of meeting Pope Francis only a few weeks after he became Pope. He was clearly passionately interested in people struggling in times of war and those who were isolated from the Church." Let us come together in prayer, remembering Pope Francis and his unwavering call to serve others, especially those in need. May his example continue to inspire us all in our mission of faith, love, and justice. ✝️💫

🌿 **Reflecting on Holy Week: Gethsemane & the Stations of the Cross** ✝️ This week, our school community was blessed to come together in reverence and reflection through two special experiences — *The Garden of Gethsemane* and *The Stations of the Cross*. These powerful moments allowed us to pause, pray, and walk alongside Jesus in His journey of love, sacrifice, and hope. A heartfelt highlight was the involvement of our Stage 3 students, who formed a discussion panel to respond to thoughtful questions from younger students. Their insights were both moving and informative — showing deep understanding, compassion, and maturity beyond their years. It was inspiring to witness them speak about Jesus' suffering, courage, and the meaning of Easter with such clarity and care. 🙏 Thank you to all who participated and helped make these reflections so meaningful — especially our wonderful Stage 3 leaders. May these moments continue to guide us as we prepare for Easter. #HolyWeek #Gethsemane #StationsoftheCross #Stage3Leaders #FaithInAction #EasterHope #LentenJourney

We understand life is busy— if you haven’t yet had a chance, **please consider setting aside a short window of time today or tomorrow**. If it is more convenient for you to take the survey at school, you can come in anytime tomorrow and will be provided with a computer and a quiet space. Thank you for supporting our school in this important way. St Finbar's Community

🌿✨ **A Beautiful Reflection by Our Stage 3 Students** ✨🌿 This week, our Stage 3 students have been guiding us through Holy Week with reverence, creativity and deep reflection. From the joyous entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, to the powerful moments of The Last Supper and the humble act of Washing of the Feet, each presentation has invited us to pause and reflect on the meaning of these sacred events. Each moment was brought to life with such care and meaning — and it was made even more special by the reverence and respect shown by all students watching. It was a beautiful reminder of the strength of our faith community and the power of reflection and prayer. Thank you, Stage 3, for helping us walk this journey together with faith and love. #HolyWeek #PalmSunday #TheLastSupper #WashingOfTheFeet #FaithInAction #Stage3Leadership #CatholicEducation
