Happy Fathers Day - 6th September
Father's Day
Next Sunday, 6 September, we celebrate Father's Day. Father's Day presents each of us with the opportunity to focus our attention on our fathers, grandfathers and father figures and make them feel "extra special". Day in and day out, we probably do not appreciate all the little things that our fathers (like our mothers) do for us. Their love, their care and their guidance all go towards making our lives enriched. The thoughtful little deeds, the playtimes and fun times are all memories we cherish. This is the perfect occasion when you can tell your father about how special he is and thank him for all his help, guidance and support.
So we say THANK YOU, DADS, for everything you have done for us over the years, and we wish you all a very Happy Father's Day.
Father's Day Liturgy
In Australia, we observe Father's Day on the first Sunday of September. As we cannot gather at school with fathers, for our annual Father's Day breakfast or liturgy, a Father's Day Liturgy (video) will be presented to our students on Friday 4 September. At this time we will pray and celebrate all fathers. To bring special meaning to the liturgy, we would love to have memorable photos of our staff and students with their fathers, grandfathers or father figures as part of the presentation. If you would like to submit photos, then please email them through to the school email: info@sfawdow.catholic.edu.au OR send the photos to your child's class teacher. All photos are to be submitted by Friday 28 August.
Our Father's Day Liturgy will be shared with all our families.
Father's Day Stall
Special thanks to our P&F for ordering our Father's Day gifts. On Thursday 3 September our School Support Officers will run the stall. Please see the flyer below.
