FROM THE REC

The month of May is a special time for Catholics to honour the Blessed Mother Mary - our St Mary’s school patron saint. Her life in the Gospel was one of service and great devotion to Jesus. While she has a somewhat low profile in the Gospels, her words resonate with us today and challenge us to follow her example of humility, obedience, and service to God.
During Whole School Prayer throughout May, we will gather together as a school community to pray the rosary together, led by our Year 6 leaders.
In May we celebrate Mary, our Mother, and just as importantly we also celebrate the wonderful mothers in our lives on Mother’s Day. I hope all of our St Mary’s mothers, grandmothers, aunties and honorary mothers had a very special day on Sunday. I hope you were celebrated and surrounded by lots of love and laughter.
