Three members of St Bernadette’s parish Legion 
of Mary visited Cathedral Primary on Thursday 6th March to pray the rosary with Primary 4 learners. The children meditated on the Mysteries of Light during their time of prayer:
- The Baptism of the Lord
- The Wedding at Cana
- The Proclamation of the Kingdom
- The Transfiguration
- The Institution of the Eucharist
Our Primary 4 learners also heard about the long-standing tradition here at Cathedral of the Legion of Mary giving a small gift to each Primary 4 pupil in the month of May, when many of them receive their First Holy Communion.
Please continue to pray for Pope Francis, as he remains in hospital:

Cathedral school community gathered for Mass on Ash Wednesday, 5th March, to mark the beginning of Lent. Pupils and staff received their ashes, a
sign of being sorry for the wrong things we do and of our commitment to grow closer to Jesus in the coming weeks.
The latest artwork to appear in Cathedral GOMA (
Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of Lent, falls on 5th March.
One of the daily pleasures of learning and working in Cathedral Primary School is being surrounded by beautiful artwork. Over the next few weeks,
we want to share some of our talented learners’ masterpieces with newsfeed readers.
As a Catholic school, Lenten almsgiving is an important part of the faith life of Cathedral Primary. However, we also recognise that there is a cost of living crisis and many families are struggling financially. Although we have planned our usual programme of fun activities to raise money for charity during Lent, no family should feel under any pressure whatsoever to make a donation each week. Please only give what you can.
Good attendance makes a HUGE difference to your child’s progress and attainment. Every school day really does count!
March’s wellbeing indicator is RESPONSIBLE. Please use the prompts below to talk to your child about this indicator. This will help them complete their wellbeing wheel in school.
These Primary 5 learners had the opportunity to sample a variety of German foods on Friday 28th February including bockwurst, wilstermarsch kase and mini kabanoss. To capture their learning, our learners recorded information on a grid including the appearance, smell, taste and texture of each item. What a tasty end to the week!
