St Joseph's Quirindi back and relaxed, refreshed

The children have returned to school full of wonderful stories about their break including, of course, many Easter egg adventures.

St Joseph's would like to congratulate and welcome Amelia and Coral Seymour, Kelly Stackman and Sarah Cudmore who joined our Catholic community through the Sacrament of Confirmation on Easter Saturday.

This special time was shared with close family and members of St Brigid's Parish.

Thank you to the families who joined our school community for the Easter liturgies over the past week in the Fr Stan Campbell Hall.

As well as being a valuable learning opportunity for our children, the liturgies were a way of St Joseph's respecting the highlight of the church's calendar year.
