NOTRE DAME SCHOOL

I would like to start out by shouting out a huge thank you to our head room moms for coming up with a brilliant Fantasy class project and beginning it this week with our second graders. The final product will be ready before you know it and we can't wait to show it off at the auction in May!

We are still working on our ABC auto-biographies. They are coming along quite nicely but they are taking a bit longer than expected. I don't think we will be asking for family photos this week, but I will keep all of you posted! I am hoping to get to the next step the week we get back from Spring Break, so just keep an eye out for that upcoming information!

Please continue reviewing the Reconciliation Packet that was sent home with your child. The more practice and the more you and your child understands the Sacrament, the more comfortable he or she will be when it comes time to receive Reconciliation in April.

Just a friendly reminder for your calendars:

1. Sacrament of First Reconciliation is Wednesday April 18th at St. Joseph immediately following school mass from 9:30-10:30am.

2. Sacrament of First Holy Communion is Sunday May 6th at St. Joseph at 2:00pm. A Reflection and Rehearsal for the Sacrament will be Wednesday May 2nd during class time. (This time has not yet been
determined. Please remember one parent or proxy needs to attend this rehearsal!)

Have a Blessed Lenten Season!
