Our Catholic Life & Identity
First Sunday of Lent:
Fasting: Fasting is more than avoiding certain indulgent foods, like chocolate or ice-cream. Eating is just one of many activities in which we are prone to overindulge. Try these ideas to impact of your fasting:
Take half serves: For one day, let hunger really bite; pray for those whom hunger is constant. Cut back a pleasurable activity that steals you away from your family.
Give up gossip: Let the bad news stop at you.
Quit blaming others: Practise acceptance and responsibility.
Caritas Project Compassion: Lolly Guessing Competition
This week Year 6 have led the first fundraising activity for Project Compassion with a Lolly Guessing competition. Students are able to donate 50c per guess to be involved in the competition. The most accurate guess gets to keep the lolly jar!
Thank you for supporting Project Compassion.
