Easter Reflection Prayer

At the very last, O Christ,

you remembered your mother and the disciple you loved.

Show us the way of love.

Teach us to remember one another.

And reassure us that it is when we give ourselves away in love

that we truly find ourselves.

Show us the way of love, O Christ.

Dear Parents and Carers,

We come to the end of our first term of 2019 and everyone is looking forward to a break. Thank you for a wonderful beginning and we look forward to seeing you back at the beginning of Term 2. We wish you the blessings of the Easter season and travel safe if you are going away.

We thank the Kindergarten and Stage 3 students and teachers for their thoughtful retelling of the Easter Story from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday.  

Yours faithfully,

Anne Staines
