Our school community gathered across both campuses on 18 February to mark Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the Lenten season, as we commence our 40-day journey towards Christ’s Resurrection at Easter.
At Champagnat Campus, students and staff came together in the gym for a whole-campus Liturgy. During this reverent celebration, members of our community received ashes on their foreheads, a visible sign of humility, repentance and renewal. At Marcellin Campus, students gathered in their House groups for a Liturgy, taking time for prayer and reflection as they begin the season of Lent.
We also marked Shrove Tuesday the day prior, signalling the conclusion of the pre-Lenten season. Students at Champagnat Campus enjoyed pancakes, traditionally prepared to use up rich ingredients such as eggs and butter before the season of simplicity and abstinence begins. This long-standing tradition provided a joyful yet meaningful reminder of the transition into Lent.
As we embark on this sacred season together, may these next 40 days be a time for embracing simplicity, deep reflection and renewed commitment to living with compassion, faith and love.
