    ADVENT SEASON on the HORIZON

    23 November 2021 (by admin)

    It's on the busy school horizon - the 1st SUNDAY of ADVENT is on Sunday 28th November 2021.

    Advent is a season of the liturgical year observed in our faith as a time of expectant waiting and preparation for both the celebration of the Nativity of Christ at Christmas and the return of Christ at the Second Coming.

    It is a spiritually significant and special time of the year.

    To signify this very special season, we are inviting ALL the children to wear an item of purple (or wear a purple outfit) on MONDAY 29th NOVEMBER in school.

    It will be a sense of 'purple oneness' and will start our special school journey.

    WEAR PURPLE DAY in school on Monday 29th November 2021.

    The word 'Advent' is derived from the Latin word adventus, meaning 'coming'
