Our Easter Parade and Liturgy

Every year our school celebrates Palm Sunday. We do this because on Sunday, before his crucifixion on Friday, Jesus entered the city of Jerusalem, riding on a donkey. Many of the students wave palms they have made or brought in from home and dress in clothes of the times.  You can read Matthew 11: 1-11 to learn more.

School Tug of War

 

 

What a fantastic way to end the week.  Our entire school came out to have a tug-of-war competition.  It was hot but that didn't stop anyone from pulling their hardest.  This is MacKillop House getting ready to take on Mill Hill House.
