This week we are very privileged to have the Blessed Sacrament in school. We have made a special Oratory.  It feels very peaceful and calm. The older children and staff have been taking the opportunity to visit in their free time. All classes are timetabled throughout the week. The children have been meditating and praying together. On Monday afternoon two senior pupils undertaking The Caritas Award in St Aidan’s High School spoke to our senior pupils about the award. They also joined P3, P3/4 and P4 to talk about prayer.

At lunchtime today I joined a group of seniors during our lunch break to say the rosary. It was the very best part of my day!

A number of parents have joined the children in the Oratory throughout the week.

Tomorrow, Wednesday 5th of February we welcome Michael Mc Grath to speak to the Primary 6 and 7 children about their invitation to take part in the Pope Francis Award.

Staff from St Andrew’s Hospice will visit the infant classes to talk to the children about prayer.

Our Primary 7 parents are invited to a meeting before the children go on their Kilbowie Adventure in March. The meeting starts at three thirty.

Our Parent Council will meet in the school at 6.30. The meeting will begin with a reflection before the Blerssed Sacrament. All members of the parent forum are invited to attend.
