Dear Parents and Carers,

On Wednesday, 1st November, our school celebrated All Saint’s Day at St. Andrew’s Church. On All Saints' Day, we celebrate all the saints in heaven, including all known and unknown saints. It is based on the belief that the world is spiritually connected to heaven. All Saints' Day is considered a Holy Day of Obligation, requiring all Catholics to attend Mass.
