Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School
Ash Wednesday
We held an Ash Wednesday service in school.
Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent.
Last years palm crosses were burnt. Father Martin blessed the ashes. The ashes were used to make a sign of the cross on everyone's forehead.
The sign of the cross reminds everyone that they should be sad for the things that they have done wrong and that they should try to change for the better.
