Primary 1 and 2 Prayer Service

Primaries 1 and 2 will hold a joint Prayer Service led by Fr Joe on Friday 10th June at 11am in the school hall. This will be a good opportunity for the children to reflect on the successful school year that they have enjoyed. Apologies for the short notice of this, as you can imagine, this is a very busy time of year and it has been difficult to find an appropriate time/day that suited both ourselves and Fr Joe.

We look forward to seeing you then.
