Athletics is the third activity on our holiday schedule. Even though our students gave it their all and did not qualify, we would like to wish the following four athletes, who we consider a part of our Saints family, the best of luck.
Mrs Daleen Janke
Isaiah 40: 29-30
“He gives strenght to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even the youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength “
Holy Week is our final activity before the start of the second term. Every year, we celebrate Holy Week at St Andrew’s because we understand how important it is to us. We observe it with great solemnity as a time of devotion to Jesus Christ’s Passion.
Message from Father Hector:
“I wish you a happy and blessed Easter holiday.
As we come out of Lent and prepare ourselves to celebrate the Easter season, we are reminded once again that we enter the season of Easter as new people after we have gone through the spiritual process of cleansing.
So, Easter signifies new life in the Lord.
May we come back renewed spiritually, morally, and intellectually.
Be safe!
– Philemon 1:25 Happy Easter Holiday!!! “Fr. Hector
