Ash Wednesday 2025
Wednesday, 5 March marked Ash Wednesday, the first day of the season of Lent. We marked the day through a whole school mass, celebrated by Fr Ramel at St Anacletus Church. During the mass, ashes were used to mark the sign of the cross on our foreheads. The ashes are a reminder that we belong to God, and that we are sorry for the times that we have done wrong.
Shrove Tuesday!
On Tuesday, 4 March, we celebrated Shrove Tuesday. Our School Captains Isabella, Madison and Karlee cooked pancakes and handed them out to Peterborough community members in the Main Street. We thank Fr Ramel for supporting the students on the day and the Peterborough Post Office for allowing us to use their shaded space, allowing this to happen. We are grateful for all the generous donations on the day which will go towards our Project Compassion fundraising. All students then enjoyed delicious pancakes during lunchtime at school. There were lots of happy faces and full tummies!
