Mother’s Day
A special thank you to our school parent committee and parent volunteers who organised a beautiful selection of Mother’s day gifts for our students on Wednesday and the delicious breakfast on Friday.
The students were all very excited about selecting a special gift and joining their mothers and grandmothers for breakfast to acknowledge the wonderful role they play in their lives.
On behalf of Our Lady of Fatima we wish all mothers and grandmothers a very happy Mother’s Day on Sunday 9th May.
