✨ Third Sunday of Advent – Gaudete Sunday ✨ Today, we celebrate the Third Sunday of Advent, also known as Gaudete Sunday, a day of joy! 💗 The rose-coloured candle on our Advent wreath reminds us that Jesus is drawing near and that joy grows in our hearts as we prepare for His coming. As a school community, we pause to reflect on the moments of joy we share each day—through kindness, friendship, learning, and giving to others. 🌟 May we continue to shine Christ’s joy in all we do this Advent season.
