🌟 Year 6 Spirituality Day 🌟 What a beautiful journey we shared, beginning our pilgrimage with the Year 6 graduation theme: *"We are made in the image and likeness of God."* 🙏 Together, we walked and prayed the Rosary on our way to St Patrick’s Cathedral, where we were warmly welcomed by Fr Tom Green. 🕊️ The students explored the cathedral, experienced adoration, Reconciliation, and celebrated Mass. To finish this meaningful day, we enjoyed a relaxing picnic lunch in the garden, reflecting on the blessings of our time together. 💒💚 A truly memorable day of faith and community! 🌿✝️

The purple candle lit on this Advent Sunday represents PEACE. 💜 It is also known as the Bethlehem candle which is exactly where our Christmas Concert took place this week. 🙏 The Nativity reveals something very special about God – that he was prepared to be with us and live among us. These wonderful images capture the spectacular Christmas story told and experienced by our students. ✨ As we continue to prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus, let us be reminded of the power of peace and our call to seek forgiveness and to forgive. 🎄
