2019 Caritas SINGout4JUSTICE
The theme for this year's competition was 'Home for Good' "linking in with the Caritas 2019 resource focus of South Sudan and the issue of displacement and the challenges faced by millions around the world who have no home". www.caritas.org.nz
Congratulations to the following students for their success in the Senior section of the competition:
First place Yr 11 students Aretha Jane Mason, Sian Pegler, Cayen Tan Vegafria and Elena Grasso with their song 'Stars'.
In a close second place were Y12 students Shanille Lat and Ngarangi Sadlier-Patmore with their song 'A Home' (last year's winners).
Well done girls, we are proud of your abilities and success.
Feast Day Artwork
Following Mass, which was celebrated by Cardinal John Dew, our Feast Day artwork was unveiled and blessed. This year this is a set of Rosary Beads which were designed and created by Nikki Payne. Each form class was assigned a bead and together they made the Rosary. We are so pleased with the result and the beads hang proudly on the wall in the Lawson Foyer. They will be a constant reminder of Mary our Mother and her love for us.

Congratulations!
31 May 2019 We are thrilled to announce that the Sweet Hearts Quartet won the Female Quartet section (out of 24 quartets) at the Regional Young Singers in Harmony Barbershop Competition yesterday. Comprising (L to R) Jessica Lawrence, Ngarangi Sadlier-Patmore, Anya Dunlop-Brown, and Terina Sadlier-Patmore, the girls really entertained with musical class and flair.
They gained great scores in all the categories of Music, Sound, Showmanship and Expression, 15 marks ahead of the next Quartet. This enables them to go to the National Finals in Christchurch held in September. The Sweet Notes quartet also sang really well. We are proud of all the girls for their hard work.
