Cardinal Newman Ash Wednesday

On Wednesday we celebrated our Cardinal Newman Ash Wednesday in school to mark the start of Lent with the children.  We reflected on our commitment in Lent to pray, fast and share.  The Year 6 Prayer Council distributed our ashes reverently and prayerful whilst we sang 'Jesus remember me when I come into your kingdom.'  The children responded to our liturgy by writing their Lent promises.
