First Holy Communion - June 10, 2012

It was a beautiful Parish and School Mass as well as the first Holy Communion celebration at St Mary's Pro-Cathedral on Sunday the 10th of June. The following are the moments taken during such a lovely day.

The first communicants enjoyed the delicious food.





















The supportive parents and grandparents were of course proud of their children.



It was a happy occasion for everyone and we thank Mrs McDonald for all her hard work.

June 6, 2012 at St Mary's

It was unusual to have the snow at this time, but it did come as a surprise. It has been the coldest in 130 years! About a dozen children came but before 9 AM the schools were officially closed. The following pictures were how our school looked before 10 AM.





















































Mrs McDonald was about to throw a bit of ice after closing the learning centre.

Fun in the Snow-June 8,2012

School started at 10 AM. We had fun in the snow for an hour after the assembly. It's rarely that we have snow on our playground.

The "three musketeers".








Just great to play with friends on the snow.








These boys are really enjoying the snow.

Savannah and Himanot made the snowman.















Amanda was holding a big chunk of ice.



The boys tried to decorate their big block of ice with leaves.



















That's a huge ball of ice.












It's hard to push this big block!




Enrico climbed up the top of the ball of ice.




Everyone was listening to Mr O'Neill.






This was how it looked like on Sunday at the First Holy Communion mass.
