Mother's Day Photos - Due Monday 2pm
07 May 2023
Dear St Anthony's Families,
It has been a big week and we are so proud of all of the efforts of our St Anthony's community.
Due to the busyness of last week, we have pushed the due date of Mother's Day photos back to Monday (8th May) at 2:00pm.
We are asking for photos of our St Anthony's mums or significant female role models (grandmother, carer, stepmum, aunt, etc.) to be emailed through to me at beth.lehmensich@cg.catholic.edu.au no later than 2:00pm tomorrow (Monday) to be included in our Liturgy on Friday morning.
This is also a gentle reminder that orders for our Mother's Day breakfast also close at 10:00am on Tuesday (9th May).
Please see below for the Mother's Day information that was previously sent out.
Peace
Beth Lehmensich
Religious Education Coordinator
Dear St Anthony’s Families,
This term, we have many exciting things happening at St Anthony’s. One of the most special events we will be celebrating is Mother’s Day.
We love our mums. While we think we should celebrate them every single day, Mother’s Day gives us the chance to really show these amazing women our appreciation. This includes our mothers, grandmothers, step mothers, foster mothers, aunts and all the people who have stood in as mums when we’ve needed them.
This year, we are delighted to be celebrating our beautiful mums and mother figures with a Mothers’ Day breakfast and liturgy led by Year Two. Information and logistical details about these celebrations are below.
Primary Breakfast (Kinder – Year 6), Friday 12th May, 7:30am – 9:00am:
Our beautiful staff will be back behind the BBQs on the asphalt. We will have bacon and egg rolls on offer for breakfast. These will be $1 each and need to be ordered via QKR!.
Our beautiful staff will be back behind the BBQ for the first time in over 12 months. We will have bacon and egg rolls on offer for breakfast. These will be $1 each and need to be ordered via QKR!. Instant tea, coffee and milo will be available from the canteen.
To avoid queueing in the morning, each family is also required to select a collection time via QKR!. Please note, when collecting your order, it will be under the QKR! profile name used when ordering. All orders must be placed via QKR! by Tuesday the 9th of May at 10:00am.
Preschool Breakfast:
Our beautiful preschool classes warmly invite their mums and mother figures to a continental breakfast at the preschool. There is no cost involved for this breakfast. For more information keep an eye out in your preschool correspondence next week.
Bilbies Breakfast, Wednesday 10th May, 8:00am – 9:00am
Koalas and Possums Breakfast, Friday 12th May, 8:00am – 9:00am
Mothers’ Day Liturgy, Friday 12th May, 9:15am:
Our Mothers’ Day liturgy will be led by our Year Two students and is always a beautiful tribute to the special women in our lives. We warmly invite all of our St Anthony’s mums and mother figures to join us for this liturgy.
During this liturgy, we will share a tribute to our mums and mother figures. We invite all our families to send in a photo of your child/ren with these wonderful women to beth.lehmensich@cg.catholic.edu.au to be included in the tribute. These need to be emailed by Friday 5th May.
