Posted on: 6/03/2025Ash Wednesday - 5th March 2025Ash Wednesday Mass On Wednesday the 5th of March, the entire school led by Year 6 gathered to celebrate our Ash Wednesday mass along with parents and Father Vincent. It was a profound and sacred experience that allowed us as a community to mark the beginning of the Lenten season. The placing of the ashes on the forehead, in the shape of a cross, serves as a powerful reminder of our mortality and our need for God's mercy. By having this Ash Wednesday mass as a school, we were able to have moments of stillness and create and strengthen our connection with God in the midst of daily life. We were reminded of the need for repentance and renewal while offering hope and encouragement for the journey ahead.
