St Catherine's Covenant was launched in October, 2004. The development of our Covenant was the first initiative of the newly formed Parish School Board and involved a year-long process of consultation throu​ghout the school and parish community, to discern and document what was, and what continues to be, important to our community.​​

Intergenerational Projecthttp://www.stcatherinescps.qld.edu.au/news-and-events/Pages/Intergenerational-Project.aspxIntergenerational Project<p>​​​<br></p><div style="text-align:justify;">In Term 3  Year 6 students have been meeting with and building relationships with residents from the Tri-Care Mt Gravatt Aged Care Residence. The project aimed to bring different generations together to share life experiences and stories about school, work, hobbies and sport from their own generation. </div><div style="text-align:justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align:justify;">It has been fabulous to see smiles on the faces of both the older adults and students as they built a connection. The project facilitated empathy and gratitude for the other generation that has then developed understanding and appreciation for one another as they became friends. </div><div style="text-align:justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align:justify;">Towards the end of term, w​​e welcomed 11 residents to STC for a delicious lunch and a special birthday celebration for Doug who turned 100 that day. Happy Birthday Doug! We were joined by Corrine McMillan MP - State Member for Mansfield who actively supported this wonderful initiative.  </div><div style="text-align:justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align:justify;">Thank you to Tri-Care for their eagerness to be involved. Thank you to Sarah Brady from The Community Crusade who supported the school with the project’s implementation and thank you also to our amazing staff Mr Armstrong, APRE, and our Year 6 teachers, Miss Sellwood and Mrs Maker, for helping to embed this project into their class learning.  We cannot wait to catch up again....... like long-time friends.<br></div><div><br></div><h2 style="text-align:center;"><a href="https://bit.ly/3MYxm08">Brisbane Catholic Education News Article - click to view</a><br></h2><p>​<br></p><h2 style="text-align:center;"><a href="https://catholicleader.com.au/life/faith/st-catherines-bridges-generations-with-new-grandfriend-program/?utm_content=309481875&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&hss_channel=fbp-359861584057924&fbclid=IwY2xjawFm1JlleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHfMhV5ekRx_ZO0NMnvkYAiuEqHdEHoETUEJkJr10ojaId9GMHUP78m-iPg_aem_FUeDRpGIg-2TBL3z1ujgVA">Catholic Leader News Article - click to view​</a>​<br></h2><div><a href="https://bit.ly/3MYxm08"></a><br></div><div><br></div><div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div class="ms-rtestate-read ms-rte-wpbox"><div class="ms-rtestate-notify ms-rtestate-read 7a13edbd-35a7-480a-a0f8-3c878af26f24" id="div_7a13edbd-35a7-480a-a0f8-3c878af26f24" unselectable="on"></div><div id="vid_7a13edbd-35a7-480a-a0f8-3c878af26f24" unselectable="on" style="display:none;"></div></div><div style="text-align:center;">​​​<br></div><br></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align:left;"><img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240906_121447%20(Medium).jpg" alt="20240906_121447 (Medium).jpg" class="ms-rtePosition-4 ms-rteImage-1" style="margin:5px;width:647px;" /><br></div><div><img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240906_120050%20(Medium).jpg" alt="20240906_120050 (Medium).jpg" class="ms-rtePosition-4 ms-rteImage-1" style="margin:5px;width:647px;" /><br></div><div><img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240906_123239%20(Medium).jpg" alt="20240906_123239 (Medium).jpg" class="ms-rtePosition-4 ms-rteImage-1" style="margin:5px;width:647px;" /><br></div><div><img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240906_120813%20(Medium).jpg" alt="20240906_120813 (Medium).jpg" class="ms-rtePosition-4 ms-rteImage-1" style="margin:5px;width:647px;" /><br></div><p>​<img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240906_123514%20(Medium).jpg" alt="20240906_123514 (Medium).jpg" class="ms-rtePosition-4 ms-rteImage-1" style="margin:5px;width:647px;" /><br>© Brisbane Catholic Education, St Catherine’s Catholic Primary School, 2024<br></p>
2024 School Leadershttp://www.stcatherinescps.qld.edu.au/news-and-events/Pages/2024-School-Leaders.aspx2024 School Leaders<p><br></p><div>All Year 6 Leaders received their badges in early February as part of a Welcome and Commissioning Liturgy that was beautifully prepared and presented by Mr Armstrong, APRE and the Year 6 teachers and their classes. This is a special moment in the lives of these young students at St Catherine's. They have been a wonderful group as they have moved through the school and I know they are more than ready to step into the school leadership role. We wish them all the best for an amazing last year at our incredible school. </div><div><br></div><div>While each and every one of our Year 6 students were commissioned and blessed as our 2024 School Leaders, some of our Year 6 students have been called to a special ministry of service this year at St Catherine’s. </div><div>These students,  who had nominated themselves, presented a short speech about why they believe they should be chosen to serve as House Captains and School Captains. They spoke to their peers about the many qualities of being a Servant Leader, such as treating others with respect, standing up for others, being kind and caring. They spoke about the various roles and responsibilities they would accept. </div><div><br></div><div>Our Year 6 School Captains and House Captains will be responsible for the organisation of some of these aspects of our school life: </div><div><ul><li>Running Assemblies </li><li>Looking after the Environmental and Sustainability elements such as Composting and Recycling </li><li>Organising the school’s Social Justice initiatives – Caritas, Romero Centre and other appeals throughout the year. </li></ul></div><div>As a community we celebrate the achievements of our athletes through Age Champion trophies, poets at the Poetry Festival, Writers and Mathematicians through ICAS Testing. We also provide an avenue for the Leaders in our community to find their role and voice in the Y​ear 6 group. It must be remembered that ALL children in Year 6 will be leaders and all will have many responsibilities. We are excited to be able to provide this uniq​​ue opportunity to the children. <br></div><div><br><strong>School Captains:</strong> <br><br>Ana M and Rory F<br><br><div style="text-align:center;"><img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240207_095737%20(Medium)%20(Web).jpg" class="ms-rteImage-1 ms-rtePosition-4" alt="" /> </div><br><br><br><br><br><div><strong>House Captains: </strong></div><div>Yuggera (Blue) – Sasha F and Ewan S​<br></div><div>Conway (Gold) – Lizzie C and Chloe N<br></div><div>O’Shea (Green) – Declan J and Sophie V</div><div>Rush (Red) – Sophie M and Hugh P<br></div><div style="text-align:center;"><img src="/news-and-events/PublishingImages/20240207_095904%20(Medium)%20(Web).jpg" class="ms-rteImage-1" alt="" /><br></div><div><br><br></div>© Brisbane Catholic Education, St Catherine’s Catholic Primary School, 2024​<br><br></div><div><br>​<br></div>​<br><br>
