Mission
Edmund Rice Trivia Night
Thank you to all the businesses and individuals who helped make the Edmund Rice Trivia Night a success. Thanks to your incredible support, the approximately $5000 raised will go directly towards funding camps and supporting children in the Bundaberg and Wide Bay region.
These camps are a vital part of our mission, providing kids with a safe space to grow, learn, and experience life-changing opportunities they may not otherwise have access to. From team-building activities to outdoor adventures, the camps empower young people to build confidence, form lasting friendships, and create memories that will shape their futures. They also provide an opportunity for Shalom students to make a real difference for others.
Thanks to the many businesses and individuals who provided contributions to the night’s prize pool:
• First National Woodgate Beach
• Sinmac Farms
• Waves Sports Club
• Bargara Central Hotel
• Officeworks Bundaberg
• Marquis Macadamias
• K-Mart Bundaberg
• Dare N Beaty
• Bundy Bearings
• Kath Dickson Institute
• Daniel Constructions
We were so well supported for this event that additional donations will be utilised in future fundraisers. Keep a look out for future opportunities to support our Edmund Rice Camps.
Masses
Gathering as a community to participate in Mass is central to being Catholic. As a Catholic School, we provide opportunities for students and staff to participate in Masses, regardless of their own faith background or none. Therefore, each House will join with another, to celebrate a House Mass during one of their timetabled Assembly times in Term 2 or Term 3.
Each Religious Education class will also cohost a Wednesday morning Mass at 8am in our chapel. This Mass occurs during term time and is a Parish Mass, so it is open to all. The Mass finishes before the 8.40am bell. Religious Education teachers will email a notice to families prior to their allocated Mass, and we encourage attendance. Upcoming Masses will be hosted by our Year 12 students.
