✨ On Friday, our St Canice's community came together to celebrate St Mary of the Cross MacKillop, the patron saint of Australia and our parish. Mary’s guiding words — “Never see a need without doing something about it” — remind us of the importance of kindness, courage, and action. She believed that when someone needs help, we should be the ones to step in. As we walk together at St Canice's, we carry Mary’s spirit with us. We reflect on how we can support one another and make our community stronger and more compassionate — just as she did. May we keep her message in our hearts each and every day. 💙🙏 #StMaryMacKillop #StCanices #WalkingTogether #KindnessAndCourage

📚 Library Day with Ms Sarah 📚 Library day is always a highlight of the week at St Canice’s! Not only do students get to borrow from an incredible selection of books, but they also learn valuable skills from Ms Sarah on how to run and care for a library. From borrowing and returning books to caring for covers and learning the library system, students from all stages are engaged and hands-on. Ms Sarah creates such a warm and welcoming space where a love of reading truly grows. ✨ Excitement is also building for our upcoming Book Week Parade on Friday 22nd of August – there’s been lots of chatter about which character to dress up as! We can’t wait to see everyone’s creativity shine. #StCanicesReads #LibraryDay #BookWeek2025 #LoveOfReading #BookParadeFun
