Youth Group Recycling Program

Our Youth Group is currrently conducting an oral care Recycling Program with the recycling company, TerraCycle.

We would be most appreciative if parishioners could help this recycling drive by bringing along their oral care product packaging to place in the collection boxes which are located in the church foyer.

Youth Group 2020 Christmas Party

Thanks to the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, we finally had a chance to get together for a Christmas party on Sunday, 6th December, in time for the last event of 2020!!  Despite not seeing each other for nine months, friendships had not diminished and it was non-stop chattering throughout the two and a half hours.

The party commenced with the usual Peace Rosary led by Fr Jerald, followed by three activities, a scrumptious meal and finishing with Christmas carols and of course, cracking the Christmas crackers! It was lovely to see the party was thoroughly enjoyed by 14 junior and senior members, as well as the adults. A big thank you to everyone who helped make our Christmas Party a success! Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a safe holiday ahead. See you again in 2021!  Below are some videos and photos taken on the day.
