Hello Grade One Families!
We had lots of fun in Grade One this week.
We celebrated Valentine’s Day on Tuesday. The children enjoyed learning about St. Valentine, and giving treats out to their friends.
On Wednesday, we began the Lenten season on Ash Wednesday. Through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, the students will continue to explore the ways they can grow closer to Jesus during Lent. Mite boxes have been sent home. Please see Ms. Griffin’s email for more information.
Thank you to all the families who were able to attend Ash Wednesday Mass today. A reminder that Daily Lenten Mass begins on Tuesday, February 20 at 8:15 am everyday. All students are strongly encouraged to attend Mass together with their school community. There is an area for backpacks, and a reserved section for the students in the front to sit with the teachers. Mass starts at 8:15 am, so please arrive on time. Parents are also welcome and encouraged to stay for Mass too! Please see Ms. Griffin’s email for more information.
We hope you have a wonderful Family Day long weekend, and we will see everyone on Tuesday, February 20 @ 8:15 am at Daily Lenten Mass!
