PASCHA PRAYER CARDS 

Using the Easter or Pascha Cards Time-line we are teaching the children that Easter is a Season of 50 days and we will go through the stories of this season. Over the Easter Season this prayer can also be continued at home and your child will know how to lead your family.

In 2023, the school gifted the families Easter Pascha Prayer Cards. If you need another set just send an email pollingerm@syd.catholic.edu.au and I’ll gift you another set.

EASTER BLESSING OF HOMES

Blessing of Homes with Holy Water is a Catholic Easter tradition. During the Easter season we will be gifting to the parents Holy water bottles with a blessing for your family.

A blessing is an expression of gratitude and affirmation. When we bless another person we affirm and validate them, we say, “You are worthwhile and important. You are loved by God and by us.”

INVITATION TO MEDITATION WITH YOUR CHILD

We invite Year 6 Parents to join their children to Relax & Meditate lead by Mary Dillon Pollinger in the Church on Friday 5 April at 2.45pm. This is a lovely opportunity to join your child’s world for ‘Relaxation & Meditation’. We will teach your child a relaxation technique, prayer and meditation that will help their well-being and faith to grow.
