Season of Lent


In Kindergarten we have been learning about Lent.

We participated in Shrove Tuesday also known as pancake Tuesday

We all participated in a grade mass on Ash Wednesday where our teachers marked the Sign of the Cross on our forehead.

This sign was to remind us of Jesus.



Below are some photos of our Prayer tables.

They are covered by a special Purple cloth.

Purple is the colour of Lent.









On our Prayer table are the special ashes that we were blessed with.

These ashes are from the palms that were burnt and blessed last year on Palm Sunday.



We have all made Lenten Promises.

These remind us how we can be like and follow Jesus

Below are some children acting out some of their promises.






Helping some one who falls over




Helping eachother and packing up






Helping our parents and teachers clean






Project Compassion - Giving money to those in need








Sharing toys with my friends







Helping make our beds and keeping our room tidy.



We have learnt Lent goes for 40 days and we are trying our hardest to be kind just like Jesus.


Some people to give up something for Lent whilst others choose to do something for Lent.

It would be great to share with your family what your Lenten Promises are!



Peace

I agree. I think this blog is great! I love seeing photos of the kids and what they are up to and I have even shared the details with family so they can see too.
