2018 Author Visit
Author Alan Whiticker, a former St Nicholas of Myra and St Dominics student, visited St Nicholas to share his books and experiences of being an author with the students. Alan has written over 50 books (non fiction) many on rugby league and sport. A former teacher, he now writes full time and is also a publisher. He loved visiting the school today and some classrooms and donated over 50 books today from all different authors he represents and publishers. Thank You Alan and a wonderful experience for our students.

✝️🏀⛹️♂️ 🌭Father’s Day Celebration 🌭⛹️♂️🏀✝️ Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Father’s Day liturgy, BBQ breakfast, and games morning. It was wonderful to see our students celebrating this special occasion with their families. Our Gospel reading this morning—the Parable of the Prodigal Son—reminded us of the importance of forgiveness, love, and second chances within our families and school community. As we continue through the Year of Hope, this message encourages us to embrace compassion and connection in all our relationships. We wish all our fathers and father figures a very happy Father’s Day this Sunday. May your day be filled with love, appreciation, and joy.

The afternoon was filled with light refreshments, laughter, and a few lively games of bingo! This initiative, part of our FIAT (Faith in Action Team) work, helps strengthen the bonds between our school and the wider community, fostering compassion, empathy, and intergenerational connection.
