Catholic Education Week
This week is Catholic Education week with a focus on Worship and Celebration. At a time when our ability to attend Mass was impacted so dramatically due to lockdown it is wonderful that we can return to celebrating as a community of faith. It has been wonderful to see families attend weekly Mass in such numbers and to see so many children attend the Ignite Club. We have much to be thankful in terms of our Catholic schools and much to celebrate. Please continue to share with your family the joy of worship and celebration by attending weekly services
