A note from the principal
First Communion Mass is a precious and meaningful time. Yet, it is only the beginning. It is like taking the first step up a ladder. Why would anyone stay there or step back down? I remember Sr. Michael Marie, my second-grade teacher, telling us that we are becoming tabernacles for Jesus. The children will receive Jesus in a way unlike any other. But Jesus doesn’t want to be ignored immediately after this special day. First Communion is just the beginning. There is nothing like receiving Him as the Bread of Life. There is nothing like becoming a tabernacle. As parents and the primary formators of their children’s faith, it’s important that their children see love, respect and hunger for the Eucharist. Then their curiosity leads them to desire. And desire leads to deeper prayer and understanding. Tabernacle literally means “temporary dwelling place.” If we are to keep Jesus close to us, we need to invite Him into the tabernacle of our bodies often. Then, the tabernacle will glow with His presence. I ask that you keep the second graders in your prayers on Sunday and every day after so that the love of Christ shines bright for all to see.

Here at Schoolbelles, we wanted to extend our support to the families affected by the closing of St. Catherine of Siena. We understand that this transition can be challenging, and we would like to help make the move to a new school as smooth as possible.
We are offering 25% off all uniform purchases for students transitioning to their new school. Our goal is to ease the financial burden and ensure students are fully prepared and confident as they begin this next chapter.
We are also happy to provide personalized fitting support, guidance on uniform requirements, and any additional assistance needed during this time.
