Principal's Message

Dear Families of Our Lady Star of the Sea,

As we near the end of our school year, the Christian world enters the liturgical season of Advent, a period of waiting and preparation leading up to the birth of Jesus. Advent officially began on Sunday, November 30th and lasts for 25 days ending on Christmas Eve, December 24, 2025.

The Four Sundays and Themes of Advent

From homes to churches, schools, and offices- the Advent wreath is a common symbol of the liturgical season. Its purpose is literally to light the way to the true Light of the World. 

The circular wreath, typically made of evergreen leaves like pine or fir, represents God’s infinite and everlasting love for us. It also holds four candles to light each Sunday of Advent. 

If you have a moment, I encourage you all to have a look at this short clip, a great one for the whole family to watch to remind us of what this very special time is all about.
