Low-key Catholic Schools Week
St John the Baptist Catholic School will hold a special liturgy on Friday, March 15, to celebrate Catholic Schools Week which runs from March 10 to 16.
The liturgy will provide a photo story of what has happened and what takes place at the school and the importance of celebrating its successes as a community.
"Normally we would have open classrooms and other events," said principal Mr Frank Cohen.
"Due to the pressures of getting the school ready for educational review, which will begin the following week on March 21, 25 and 26, staff have been instructed by me to dedicate their energies to these events.
"Also this year, Easter arrives early and, as a Catholic school, our purpose is to celebrate being Easter people and we will be recreating the Easter story during this time.
"So essentially our contribution to Catholic Schools Week this year will be low key," said Mr Cohen.
