Hello from Mrs Saunderson who is on leave this week in Far North Queensland.

The Sisters of Mercy came to Cooktown before the world wars. During the Second World War the American troops took over the convent the sisters never returned. 
The convent has been refurbished and is now part of the Captain Cook Museum.
Have a restful holiday...I did say a prayer for all of you in this beautiful chapel. 
Thank you to Yr 5/6 and all who were involved in last weeks Mass...I hear on the grapevine you had a lovely celebration.
