We are so excited come together as a community and celebrate 84 years of St. Catherine

on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at St. Catherine School's Victoria Hall.

We need your help to make our largest fundraiser a successful event! Last school year, the auction raised over $290,000 for our school!  All auction proceeds go directly to the St. Catherine School's operating budget and to our children's education.

All St. Catherine families are required to support the Auction through donating and/or procuring items, volunteering 5 hrs of your time, and we can't wait to see you at the main event on May 10th!
