Holy Week Paraliturgy

Our Holy Week Paraliturgy will take place on Friday, April 4th, at 1:30 pm. It will be followed by a school assembly, which will conclude with the drawing of the Easter Raffle.

As we approach the joyous celebration of Easter, we are reminded of its profound significance in the life of our Catholic community. Easter is a time of rejoicing, as we commemorate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and the promise of new life that it brings to all who believe.

The Easter story begins with the solemn observance of Holy Week, a time of reflection and prayer that invites us to walk alongside Jesus in his final days on Earth. From Palm Sunday, when we wave palm branches in joyful acclaim, to Holy Thursday, when we remember the Last Supper and the institution of the Eucharist, to Good Friday, when we contemplate the sacrifice of Christ on the cross, each day of Holy Week deepens our appreciation for the love and mercy of our Saviour.

On Easter Sunday, we gather to proclaim with joy, “Christ is risen! He is truly risen!” The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the central event of our faith; it is a message of hope that transcends time and space, bringing light into the darkness and joy into our hearts.

As a Catholic primary school, we are called to bear witness to the Easter message in all we do. We seek to cultivate in our students a spirit of compassion, kindness, and generosity, reflecting the love of Christ in our words and actions. Through prayer, worship, and service, we strive to nurture the seeds of faith planted within each child, helping them grow into Jesus' disciples and stewards of God's creation.

This Easter, let us give thanks for the blessings of faith, family, and community that enrich our lives each day. Let us carry the message of  Easter joy with us wherever we go.
