Confirmation

Last Sunday, 7 students celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation at St Matthew’s Church. Supported by their families and the Parish community, Rhys, Angus, Maddison, Rhyan, Angelina, Riley, and Lucas were confirmed. Fr Tony Chiera was our celebrant for this very special service. We would like to congratulate these students as they continue their faith journey, and wish them well for the future.

Interschool Athletics

A fantastic display of speed, skill and sportsmanship was on display for the Narrogin District Interschool carnival on Tuesday and Friday of Week 2.

St Matthew’s School was represented by a team of 54 athletes who left everything on the track and came away with 2nd overall and 1st in the handicap. There were many ribbons won for individual events but most of the points that St Matthew’s scored were from their exceptional team games and relays; a true testimony for their ability to work together.

Special thanks to East Narrogin for the coordination of such a successful day.

Congratulations to the following individuals who were awarded medallions on the day:

Blake (Year 1), Oscar (Year 1), Mia (Year 1), Iyana (Year 2), Chelsea Richards (Year 2), Uzoma (Year 2), Hamish (Year 2), Evan (Year 3), Matthew (Year 3), Ifoema(Year 4), Dylan (Year 5) and Bailey Perkins (Year 6).
