Mass


Well done to everyone and especially Year 3 for your fabulous singing in the choir today at our school mass. Thank you also to all of you who sat with your families in the congregation. Year 5 led the liturgy today, Harvest Sunday, and did a wonderful job. We will think in school tomorrow about what the gospel reading means for us.
