On Thursday many of our youngest children got to see inside a building they have been walking past for two years.
The return of Foundation Phase to school mass in St Joseph’s church was a wonderful occasion. Behaviour and respect were wonderful. The children listened well to Fr Vimal, they sang with enthusiasm, quietly said their prayers and looked in wonder at all around them. Year 2 children, who were chosen to read, did so clearly and confidently despite being a first time for many of them. Younger children brought up offertory gifts without a hesitant step. After mass, excited children pointed out the wonderful stained glass windows, the crucifix hanging from the ceiling and the shining gold on the altar. They said they wanted to come back to church again very soon. It was good to be back.
