Our Opening School Mass last Thursday was a wonderful celebration.  Thank you to parents, grandparents and friends of St. Mary's for coming along and celebrating with us.

The significance of the children processing in to Mass with the potted plants was a reflection on the words of Mrs. Richards welcome.

'...may this Batlow community feel the love and comfort from the St. Mary's community as you continue to battle, rise and rebuild.'

Next Tuesday 25th February is Shrove (pancake) Tuesday.  The children will be having pancakes at recess at no cost.  

Ash Wednesday is the next day 26th February.  This is the beginning of the season of Lent in the Catholic church.  We will be celebrating the Mass at 12:00 noon with the Year 5 children as our leaders. 

Have a wonderful week.
