Butler Catholic Primary school community deepens understanding of patron saint

Saint Francis of Assisi Catholic Primary School in Butler held a day of celebration to mark the Jubilee Year of the 800th anniversary of the death of its patron saint. The event included a Mass, a Mission Fete, and the annual Colour Run to bring students, staff, and the local community together.

Perth Auxiliary Bishop Nelson Po and Clarkson Parish Priest Father Dariusz Krzysztalowicz celebrated the Mass in the school hall. During his homily, Bishop Po encouraged students to follow the example of Saint Francis by practicing peace, prayer, and poverty in spirit. He challenged the students to show kindness, care for others, and maintain a humble heart by putting God at the center of their lives.
