Dear Parents/Guardians, Friends & Students of SAC,

What a night we had last Thursday at the Entertainment Centre. So many beaming smiles from the stage, and the experience of a lifetime for the children. Thank you to our SAC families, who are always there to cheer on the girls, and a very special thanks to all the teaching and support staff who have been working hard in the lead up to this event. Eloise Griffiths has been bringing together a Spectacular evening of entertainment for many years now and she was supported by Lucy Dilger, Fiona Turner and all the staff who know how much this event means to the children.

2025 SAC SPECTACULAR

The end of each school year is filled with final gatherings, and the Primary Mass is a sacred moment for students, staff and families to reflect on the blessings of the year. Thanks to Father James McEvoy, my lovely brother, whose constant presence and guidance on these occasions is a gift to this community. James cares deeply for us at SAC, and we are so lucky to have him leading our College Masses. The pride in the eyes of the students and their families at the awards ceremony, and the genuine support and affirmation from their peers, is always a joy to witness. Thanks to the many families who came along.

A Mass of Gratitude and Achievement

As Advent begins, we enter a time of preparation for Christmas. I know that the chance to relax with family and friends will be greatly appreciated after a busy year. Thank you for the trust you place in us to guide and support your children to flourish here at SAC. It has been wonderful to witness this growth in 2025, and we look forward to welcoming students, staff and families back to school in 2026. It will be an exciting year for us, with the opening of the new Dunlevie, and we look forward to watching the final stages of this development.

Preparing for Christmas and a Bright New Year at SAC

Wishing everyone all the blessings of Christmas and a happy and safe holiday.

Ms Paddy McEvoy
