Queensland’s most senior Catholic, Archbishop Mark Coleridge, dropped into St Mary’s Catholic College in Kingaroy on Friday to talk to students and hand out various awards.
Coleridge was installed as leader of the Brisbane Archdiocese in May last year, and since then has been attempting to visit all the Catholic schools and parishes throughout his region.
He is visiting the South Burnett this weekend and will be attending Mass at Cooyar, Blackbutt, Nanango, Kumbia and Kingaroy.
He will also be presiding over First Holy Communion and Confirmation ceremonies in Kingaroy parish.
He attended St Mary’s Catholic College’s last school assembly for the term, handing out awards to students.
He also congratulated the students on their effort to collect a trailerload of non-perishable foodstuffs in just 14 days to present to Centacare South Burnett for its Winter Appeal.
