Ash Wednesday 

Religious Education by Ms Jane Davies 

On Wednesday our school community acknowledged Ash Wednesday and held a beautiful Liturgy in our church. Ash Wednesday marks the first day of Lent.  

Ash Wednesday for our students and school community is a time to reflect about being a being a kind, loving and nice person. Ashes were used to put a small cross onto the students forehead symbolic to this idea. This created much excitement!

 

The students were very interested and quite intrigued by the ash and the messages spoken and many of them said they thought it was very special day.

 

Here is a prayer about Ash Wednesday and photos of the liturgy.
