Shrove Tuesday
05 Mar 2014

The smell of pancakes wafted through the corridors of St Agnes on Tuesday 4 March 2014.
Students cooked pancakes as part of Shrove Tuesday which were sold at recess.
Proceeds of this sale will be donated to Caritas Australia. Shrove Tuesday (also known as Pancake Day) is a day of celebration as well as penitence, because it's the last day before Lent
. Pancakes are eaten on this day because they contain fat, butter and eggs, which were forbidden during Lent.

He is Risen! ✝️ As our St Agnes CHS community enjoys a well-deserved break, we pause this Easter Sunday to reflect on the joy and hope of Christ’s resurrection. Easter reminds us of new beginnings, renewal, and the power of faith, even in times of rest and stillness. May this holiday be filled with peace, love, and time to reconnect with family and what matters most. Wishing all our students, families, and staff a blessed and joyful Easter. He is risen, alleluia!

On Good Friday, we remember Christ’s love shown through sacrifice. A love that calls us to stand with those who suffer, and to act with compassion and justice for all. As we reflect today, may we continue to walk together towards a more just world.

Today we remember Holy Thursday, the night of the Last Supper and the beginning of Jesus’ journey to the cross. We recall the gift of the Eucharist, where Jesus shared bread and wine and called us to love and serve one another. Jesus then went to pray in the Garden of Gethsemane. In deep anguish, He turned to the Father, surrendering to His will as His hour drew near, fulfilling the Scriptures. May we take time today to pause, pray, and stay close to Him. 🙏✨
