New mums celebrate Season of Creation

New mothers at Trinity Catholic College gathered for a Paint and Sip evening to celebrate the Season of Creation. Participants painted native Australian flowers inspired by this year's theme, Living Water.

The event allowed the women to connect through art and conversation while reflecting on the link between faith, family, and the natural world. The Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle noted that the flower paintings symbolized the nurturing required for all living things to flourish, a concept many mothers connected to the love and guidance needed to help children grow spiritually and emotionally.

The Season of Creation is observed by Christian communities from September 1 to October 4. This year's theme highlights the source of life that sustains both faith and the environment.
