Remember, this week coming is Catholic Schools Week. Every year we celebrate the great Don John Bosco, the patron saint of the Salesians, on the 31st of January. Sr Catherine has great songs we'll be singing, and we'll be learning how he gave his life to help poor young boys and girls.
His great advice to young people was simple: "Pray when it's time to pray. Study when it's time to study. Play when it's time to play. Show kindness to everyone you meet. But do it all for the love of Jesus."
