Week 5 is a really busy week.
A busy time on the Catholic calendar and we also have the school Gala on Thursday afternoon/evening. I do hope to see you all there, I will be manning the bouncy castle:)
Lent starts this week. Children will be talking about their Lenten promises in class tomorrow and we will have a ceremony in the hall after lunch to hand in our promises.
Tuesday is Shrove Tuesday...Shrove Tuesday (also known as Pancake Tuesday or Pancake day) is the day that immediately precedes Ash Wednesday (the first day of Lent), which is celebrated in some countries by consuming pancakes. It is the last day of "fat eating" or "gorging" before the fasting period of Lent.
On Wednesday we celebrate the beginning of Lent, the Ash Wednesday Liturgy is in St.Mary's Church at 9.00am. We will receive the ashes on our foreheads. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Thursday is Gala Day.
Friday is the long awaited tug of war between the school houses. It was postponed due to a longer than normal assembly last Friday.
In addition to all of these exciting events, Michelle and I will be doing the school entry testing. We will organise a time in Week 6 to meet with each of you to discuss your child as a learner and review their results.
See you all tomorrow for a fun filled, action packed week.
Mrs H.
