Centenary celebrations

 

Our centenary celebrations have officially come to an end.  We have had an amazing twelve months of celebrations to mark this very special milestone for our school.  We thank everyone who was involved and were lucky to be able to acknowledge contributions of the steering committee, sub-committees, staff and supporters in front of our students at assembly last week and in front of our parents at our Ball.

Just Photography have kindly placed all professional photographs from our Race Day, Mothers’ Lunch, Centenary Mass and Ball on their website for viewing and downloading. Photographs are available from: http://www.justphotography.com.au/stcolumbascentenary/

Our Centenary Video is available to view on the home page of our school website or by visiting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOHAjQmnxuo

Our Centenary Art will be on display in our new building and a snapshot of all the images can also be seen and printed by clicking here:  Centenary Art.pdfCentenary Art.pdf

There are also a  limited number of St Columba bracelets and keyrings available for purchase in the school office for $5 each.
