Thanks very much for your emails it was lovely to read your messages and see some of your lovely work. I’ll look forward to seeing more of your work this week. My Email address is Katrinacumiskey@gmail.com Religion: I know this week should have been a very busy and exciting week at school practicing for our First Holy Communion and it is so unfortunate that we can’t celebrate it as planned, however we will all look forward to a new date when it is safer to do so and we will have a fantastic day. Fr Brian has very kindly organised to say a special mass for all the First Communicants on Saturday evening and everyone’s name will be mentioned in the mass. You can watch this mass on the church webcam (click here for link). I hope you can all join Fr Brian for this mass. As part of your Religion homework, I would like you to draw a picture of something linked to First Holy Communion. It could be your favourite Do This In Memory Mass, a picture of the host and chalice, bread and grapes or a picture of what you might look like on your First Holy Communion Day. I would like you to email me these drawings and we would like to include them in our News Letter.
