Grade 6

Dear Grade Six Families,

This past week we celebrated our 41st Catholic Educators Conference. Even though the format was done differently, it was wonderful to have the opportunity to listen to some amazing speakers to help us with our professional and spiritual growth.

On Wednesday, February 17th the school community will be celebrating Ash Wednesday. We will be accessing the Parish YouTube channel and replaying that morning’s livestream Mass at 9:05 am. Each class will be provided with a small bowl of blessed ashes and we will be sprinkling a small amount over each student’s head – contactless. Father will make his way to the school and administer communion and blessings.

We wish you a fantastic St. Valentine’s Day and Family Day long weekend! Go outside and play in the snow!!
