Today, our school community came together in faith and celebration for our Beginning of Year School Mass, attended by our wonderful P.3–P.7 children.

A heartfelt thank you to Father Kevin for leading us in this special liturgy and for his inspiring homily, reminding us of the importance of showing kindness and respect to everyone we meet.

We are also deeply grateful to all the pupils and staff who helped enhance our liturgy through their participation, music, and reverence. Your contributions made this a truly meaningful start to our school year.
