COLLEGE MUSICAL – BACK TO THE 8Os

St Patrick’s College Townsville is delighted to be joining Ignatius Park College and St Margaret Mary’s College for this year’s musical extravaganza, BACK TO THE 8Os. Students across all three Colleges have been rehearsing for many months and their excitement builds as the performance dates grow closer. After so many cancelled events in 2020, this performance opportunity has certainly filled a void in our artists’ hearts! In the weeks to come, we will feature some of the actors of this fun, fabulous show, so stay tuned. For tickets, head to Ticketshop

AN ENTREPRENEUR 

Meet Year 8 student, Meg Burbidge. 

Twice a week, Meg provides her homemade cupcakes to Whites Grocer in North Ward. She bakes the order the night before, waits for her cupcakes to cool before icing each one with its own distinctive pattern. On Monday and Thursday, Meg drops her order off to Whites Grocer by 6.30am so that her popular delicacy will be ready for the customers. Meg began her business venture at the end of last year and is keen to continue to grow her business. She manages all of this with her studies, Athletics commitments and Piano lessons. We are incredibly proud of Meg’s tenacity and business acumen!

Head down to Whites Grocer to pick up one of Meg’s delicious cupcakes.

P&F MOTHER’S DAY PLANT SALE

To help celebrate all the amazing women in our life, the P&F worked with Bunnings Fairfield to provide the College with a large assortment of flowering plants. These were available for a gold coin donation with all monies going to a women’s charity. We are so proud of our community for supporting this venture. 

“Such a beautiful idea, thank you so much. I was blessed with 3 plants which I will plant with my daughter on Sunday.” (Cindy Collison)
