Our school provides opportunities for students, staff and parents to know and celebrate their Catholic faith. This is done through the religious life of our school. Members of our community experience a rich liturgical and prayer life, celebration of the Sacraments, faith formation, social outreach activities, and opportunities to share faith with each other and with youth from other schools in the Archdiocese.
At Holy Family Catholic Primary School Menai, the school community actively celebrates its faith through various religious observances, such as masses, liturgies, and annual events like Lent, Holy Week, Easter, Advent, and Christmas. The school also commemorates significant national events like ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day.
Parents at Holy Family are encouraged to participate in numerous events throughout the year. These opportunities are designed to connect and engage parents, enhancing the faith life of their families. The school’s Family Educator plays a crucial role in nurturing meaningful relationships between the parish, parents, and the school, and explores innovative ways to support family wellbeing in spiritual, social, and educational aspects.
The staff at Holy Family engage in annual spirituality retreats and other formation opportunities to deepen their spiritual lives. The school emphasises social justice, encouraging students to participate in initiatives that promote dignity and respect for all.
