End of Year Celebrations

11.12.24
That's a wrap on our 2024 school year!
As the school year ends, it's a time for reflection, celebration and gratitude. Fr Long Hai led us in a beautiful Mass, giving thanks to God for another year of learning and growth and a special blessing for our graduating Year 6 students.
Following Mass, Mr Catalano presented the Inspiring Excellence Awards and we congratulate the following students for their outstanding achievement. 🏅
Stevie (Rec), Ravneet (Yr 1), Macey (Yr 2), Charlotte (Yr 3), Luca (Yr 4), Nellie (Yr 5), and Gurnoor (Yr 6). Gurnoor was also our Hindmarsh Shield recipient.
The recipients for our 'Capturing the Spirit Award' presented to two Year 6 students were Eve and Xavier.
Thank you to all our TWCS families who attended and to our wonderful staff who always go above and beyond for our school community.
We wish all of you a very happy Christmas, enjoy the summer break and we will see you all next year in 2025!

25th Anniversary & Opening of New Learning Centre

07.12.22

On Nov 1st our community celebrated the Official Opening of our Learning Centre and the 25th birthday of Tension Woods Catholic school.

1997 saw the amalgamation of St Joseph’s and Kilmara Catholic Schools on the Richmond site.  Over the past years the space has changed with new buildings, playgrounds, increased enrolments and a staff now of 28.

With special guests including Archbishop Patrick, Fr Long Hai, past staff and school board members, the windy and wet day could not dampen the enthusiasm and singing of the children.  We thank Paula, Dee and Peta for their planning along with Kirsty Miller and Jess Rainsford for the catering support.  We thank those that have walked the journey with us and we look forward to what the future holds for everyone.
