MAKE IT HAPPEN

The Christmas message is centred on the family. Enjoy Christmas - it is a time for celebration. Lend a hand by doing a few jobs around the house. If there are disagreements be calm, talk it out and listen to the other point of view. Don’t bring upset to your family through bad behaviour this Christmas.

Most young people are very fortunate in a material sense. Think about less fortunate people at home and abroad. Make a contribution towards a charity or better still help your local Vincent de Paul or our collection for the Whitehall Social Services over the Christmas.

The religious aspect is central to the celebration of Christmas. Advent is a time of preparation before Christmas. To understand the message of Christianity we need to understand the message of hope and love that Christmas brings.

Make it happen this Christmas.

Mr. T. P. Ward
Deputy Principal.
