Start of the School Year: Blessing

Dear Families and Friends, 

A warm welcome to 2022 scholastic year. Perhaps it hasn’t been the most ideal of starts, but from what I hear, it has been a successful one thanks to the effort and commitment of all our school community.

I thought I’d share with you this prayer of blessing, that you might want to pray with your child:

Lord Jesus,

I ask for Your help as I begin this new school year.

Allow me to experience Your presence in the many blessings You put before me.

Open my eyes to the new challenges and

exciting opportunities that this new school year brings.

Open my heart and mind to new friends and new teachers.

Give me a generous spirit to be enthusiastic with my studies

and courage to accept new opportunities.

Help me to be attentive to my teachers

and let me experience Your presence in my new friends.

Jesus, inspire me to do my best this year! Amen 

Easter Season

As we gently make our way through the first few weeks of school, we are also looking ahead at major events and how COVID will impact our activities around them. Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday are first in line on the 1^st and 2^nd March. We plan to still celebrate these important occasions but are threading with caution around the scale of each. Please keep an eye out for information on our school’s communication platforms; we will publish information as soon as we attain further details.

Sacramental Program

The Sacramental Program for 2021/2022 is set to restart in the next few weeks. Please keep an eye out for communication from the Parish Sacramental Team. We will endeavour to echo this information across our platforms as soon as the information is published by the parish.

Important Dates from the RE Calendar

20^th February: World Day of Social Justice
1^st March: Shrove Tuesday
2^nd March: Ash Wednesday
4^th March: World Day of Prayer

Blessings!
