O Come, Let Us Adore Him

Christmas break is upon us! During Advent, our students were able to deepen their faith and prepare their hearts with kindness for the coming of Jesus. 

Have a look at our journey through Advent!

May your families be blessed with peace, joy and health throughout this Christmas season!

Christmas blessings and lots of love,

Advent: Joyful Waiting!

This past Sunday marked the first Sunday of Advent. 


We have been learning about the liturgical calendar. Can your child point out Advent?




Advent is a time of hope and anticipation. We are waiting for the birth of Christ!



We changed our prayer table cloth from green, when it was Ordinary Time, to purple for Advent. Can you see our wreath? We light one candle for each of the four Sundays in Advent. This week we lit the first candle. As we light more candles each week, our world becomes brighter, symbolizing our growing anticipation of Jesus, who is the light of our world. 




Each Monday, we celebrate with a school-wide virtual assembly. At our daily Connection Time, we will always begin each day with a cozy little Advent celebration. 



This week, we reflected on the birth of Christ by making our own torn paper advent wreaths. These will come home prior to Christmas break. 


As we journey towards Christmas, may we prepare our hearts with kindness as we joyfully wait for the coming of Jesus!
