Second Sunday of Advent - Hope

This weekend is the second Sunday of Advent. We light the second candle on the Advent Wreath which represents peace.

God, thank you for giving us peace.

As we light this candle in your name, we ask you to help us to be peacemakers in our world.

Amen

This week I would like to share a link to an online Advent Calendar compiled by Garratt Publishing. The first week of Advent is currently available. This year the calendar focuses on the origins of Christmas Carols and provides a reflection for each day.

Mini-Fete

We are excited to announce that we will be having our Mini Fete in Week 10! All money raised will go to the Catholic Missions. We ask that each child bring in a gold coin donation for the fete.

The Mini-Fete will be a little different this year, to compily with the current restrictions. The Year 6 students have arranged a number of fun activities for the students to complete in class next week. Entries for each event will be due by Friday next week and students will receive a small prize for participating in the events. There will be overall winners for each event, and they will be announced at a special assembly on Monday Week 11.
