The days are moving on and we are edging closer and closer to the celebration of Easter with next Sunday marking the 5th Sunday of Lent. Lent allows all of us, an opportunity to prayerfully reflect on ourselves and commit to a new action which would align ourselves more closely to the person of Jesus Christ. In the context of our daily routines we all have room to adjust something which may improve a relationship or an attitude which possibly has been weighing on our minds. Lent is an excellent time to make a real effort to do something positive, to do something that is life-giving. A change for the better, time in prayer and engagement with the celebration of the Eucharist would allow all of us to be better placed to navigate through the challenges as we move closer to Easter. 

Tomorrow March 25, is the feast of The Annunciation and is a day of significance for our world wide Church. The Annunciation acknowledges the announcement made to Mary that she was to be the mother of Jesus. This occurred in the town of Nazareth which is why Nazareth school places particular importance on this feast. To acknowledge the feast day Years 3 – Year 6 will attend Mass with Fr Joe our Parish Priest. 

Our next P&F Meeting will be held next Tuesday March 29 commencing at 6pm in the school Library. This meeting will be conducted face to face and all parents/carers are welcome to attend. 

Take care.
