Shrove Tuesday: Feasting & Fun

Today is Shrove Tuesday. It is the last day before Lent. It is a day of feasting and fun!

Boy, did we feast today! Our energetic and generous Parent Council served a hot, delicious pancake & sausage lunch for everyone in the school. Can you tell we loved it?




Sometimes Shrove Tuesday is called Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday. On this day, people would traditionally use up the rich foods in their fridge that was often not allowed to be eaten during Lent, such as milk, eggs and butter. Add a little flour, and you have pancakes!

Thank you, Parent Council, for serving such a delicious pancake lunch!

Full bellies & sticky hands!


Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday. It marks the first day of Lent. We will gather as a school community at OLPH Church for mass at 12:30 pm. We will all receive ashes on our foreheads. If your schedule allows, please consider joining us!
