RE News Week 5
During Lent, we focus on the love of Jesus and the sacrifice He makes for us through the Crucifixion. Fr Namora celebrated Mass with the Year 5 students last week, where he reflected on how often we take time to see the greatness of God’s love in our own lives. He challenged the students to look at themselves in the mirror each day and tell themselves how ‘beautiful and wonderful’ they are – a good challenge for us all!
