Principal's Fortnightly Blog - Advent

Submitted by mericiadmin on November 29, 2018 - 10:49am

Christmas is a favourite time of year in the Wholley household. It’s the one time that I go out and buy magazines to plan for the year’s Christmas menu. My daughters and I plan what decorations will go, while my husband starts making a list of all the “jobs” he is going to have to do to make our requests a reality. I have to admit we started the decorating a week early this year on the Feast of Christ the King. However, it is this Sunday that we begin the season of Advent and celebrate the Church’s “New Year”.
