Thank you to Ms O'Malley, who assisted in the delivery of the presentation on Spiking Awareness, which is a prominent issue at social events currently.

THE FEAST OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
The Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary is celebrated on
December 8th. Many people believe that the feast celebrates Jesus’ conception, but in fact
it celebrates Mary’s Immaculate Conception; the fact that Mary was, from the very first
moment of her existence (her conception), without sin, and chosen to be the Mother of
Jesus.
This feast is a holy day of obligation. 
Mass is available in Kilcullen parish church 9:30am.

Ms Bucke and the Community Care Class arranged a wonderful visit to Willow Brook Nursing Home. The students sang a range of songs, played the guitar, keyboard, and violin. They then played Bingo with the residents with five winning prizes! Students then presented handmade Christmas cards and a gift to each resident. It was a truly special experience for everyone involved and a reflection of our school ethos.
