During the month of May all classes visited Our lady at our school grotto. We remember Mary during the month of May. Children brought their own rosaries and spent some time praying together to Our Lady seeking her guidance.
All classes also visited our prayer garden where the Apostle and other children led collective worship. We enjoyed spending time praying together as a class in a sacred place. 

Today we visited our parish church to pray the Stations of the Cross. During Lent we remember Jesus' journey before he was crucified. We have been learning about the Stations of the Cross in class and really enjoyed learning more from Peter. 

On Tuesday Fr Luigi led us in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. It was a time of prayer and reflection that allowed us to spend special time with the Lord in our busy school day. We, the Apostles, prepared the Adoration service by writing prayers and choosing hymns. 

On the feast of St Brigid, 1st February, 3B performed their assembly about her life through poetry and song. Everyone had a part and all the children read their lines with clear, confident voices. In class the children made St Brigid’s Day crosses and showed them to everyone during the assembly. St Brigid is still remembered today because of the great example that she set; by the way she lived her life, of Christian love for others. The children  sang a song praising the work of St Brigid. Thank you to all the parents for coming.

Following on from 3B’s assembly about St Brigid, John & Tina McGinley joined us in school and worked with the children in Year 5 and 4A to make tradition St Brigid’s crosses from reeds that came all the way from Co. Donegal. A special thank you to John and Tina.

Throughout the entire month of November, we recall our deceased relatives, friends, and all the faithful departed who may yet be waiting for the full joy of heaven in purgatory. We pray for them, remembering that likewise, these people (being purified) have the power to intercede for us too.
November 1st is  the feast of All Saints when we remember all saints and martyrs, known and unknown, throughout Christian history. For the feast of All Saints, Fr Luigi celebrated Mass for the parish and our school community. We reflected on our calling to become saints and how we can always seek the intercession of the saints who have gone before us who are now in Heaven. We also remembered and prayed for our loved ones who have died. Some teachers from the school read the readings while the children from year 5 were altar servers.

On Tuesday 30th October, Fr Luigi and Brother Richie came into school and led 3B’s class mass. We also invited our parents and Mrs Paczek to attend. Before the Mass we had to prepare by selecting readings and writing our own intentions. Some children were selected to read including our class apostle, Kathryn. We also sang hymns giving thanks to God. We would like to thank Fr Luigi and Brother Richie for leading us in prayer.

​On Monday 8th October the whole school went to Mass to celebrate the school's Feast Day. The school is named after Our Lady of The Rosary as this was the day that Canon Moore received the news that the building of our school would take place. We would like to thank Fr Luigi for leading the Mass, the children for their excellent readings and Peter for rehearsing with them. We would also like to thank the children in Year 6 for leading us in singing.
Please continue to pray for the school during the month of October.

During the month of October we prayed at our school grotto. We reflected upon the Rosary prayer and significant episodes from Mary's life. We laid flowers at the feet of Our Lady.
