Advent Activities

• Everyday in the classroom, we open our day by lighting and praying around the Advent wreath.  We try to focus our attention on the coming of Jesus into our lives.  At mass on Wednesday, December 4, our Advent wreath was blessed.
• On Wednesdays during Advent, your child gets together with their assigned Advent Angel (older student in our building) and does a specially planned activity.  These various activities are centered around the meaning of the season of Advent.  Be sure to ask your child each week what they are doing in their Advent angel activity.
• The school has some adopted nursing home residents in need.  Please donate on Spirit Days and noisy change collection masses.
• On the final day of school before Christmas vacation, Friday, Dec. 20, all students need to bring a sack lunch.  After lunch, they will sing Christmas carols with their Advent Angel. School will be dismissed at the regular time, 3:10 p.m..
