    Christmas Tree Lighting

    A fantastic night was had on Saturday evening, December 7th, when Fr. Reggie kicked off the “Our Lady of Fatima” Christmas Tree Lighting Cermony in front of a large crowd of people just after the 4:30pm mass.

    The Columbiettes hosted a fantastic Pasta Dinner afterwards for everyone, with Patty and Suzette leading the charge, and Lyz photographing the event like it was Oscar night!. Everyone had a great time – it felt like Christmas Day came early! Thanks to all the Columbiettes who put on a fantastic feast and to the Knights who helped setup

    Oktoberfest Fundraiser 2024

    On Friday evening, October 4th 2024, the Columbiettes partnering with the Knights hosted their annual Oktoberfest party.

    The event was held in the School Gym which was a last minute decision and a great one given that the crowd was over 100 people. There was a mix of adults and children, both of which craved the popcorn that was available. The quality of the Bratwurst was out of this world with head chef Suzette Grimmer refusing to give away her secrets, although we did see a lot of beer involved in the recipe! In addition, there were plenty of sides available including the German Potato Salad Spaetzel, and the food was distributed masterfully by Patty Terranova and her well abled team of Columbiettes. For those who had room afterwards, there were many pies available for dessert.

    Thanks to everyone who participated and turned up to the event, and to the Columbiettes who organised and ran the event itself with huge success, and to the Knights who helped with set up and cleanup. The pictures below tell the tale of a fantastic night!
