Procession in Honour of Our Lady – Friday 17 May, 9:15am

Following the age-old tradition of honouring Mary, the Mother of God, we are to have our own Procession on Friday 17 May. We will start at 9:15am in the school hall and process up to church where we will honour Our Lady with flowers, led by the First Communion children in all their finery. If the sun shines, and we hope it does, we will crown the statue of Our Lady of Lourdes outside church and if not, we will finish in church.

All are welcome so please share with your family and friends.

Stopping outside school

Please be reminded cars cannot stop to drop off children on the zig-zag lines outside the school gates. Neither should we park or stop across people's driveways.

It is illegal and also inconsiderate. One of our neighbours last week was delayed leaving home for an important hospital appointment. Also, a car was stopped on the corner of Larch Avenue, which is extremely hazardous for other road users and pedestrians.

Thank for your support.
