Two weeks ago the St.Patrick’s Cross Country Team went to Our Ladies High School to participate in a Cross Country Competition. Out of thirteen people from the school four qualified Daniel Lauder (7th),  Kirstin McKenna(6th), Emma Kerr (10th) and Jake Stirling(2nd). Everyone did very well and they should be very proud of themselves.

This week is Catholic Education Week. This year we are focusing on “Shining the Light of Faith.” It began at the weekend with children participating at each Mass. On Monday we had a whole school service and children from primary three to seven led with readings, prayers and lighting candles. Our P3 Communicants led us in singing, This Little Light of Mine. This week throughout the school the classes will be doing work focusing on how we can be “Shining the Light of Faith.”
