What a busy yet wonderful beginning to 2022 we have had! On reflection of our first week back I felt nothing but grateful. I am grateful for the staff here at St Mary’s who support each other; grateful to our St Mary’s parents for their continuous understanding and most of all; grateful to our beautiful students who constantly bring smiles to my face and to those around them. 

I journaled these 3 things on Saturday morning as I woke up with such a grateful heart.

Taking time to acknowledge what we are grateful for has many benefits for our mental health, whether you practice gratitude in prayer, journaling, telling others often, smiling with your thoughts or meditation. 

What 3 things are you grateful for today?

Have a blessed week everyone.
