Dear Families & Friends of Fatima,
First of all, I hope you all are enjoying the Thanksgiving holiday, long weekend. For me it has been a very laid-back, pleasant time of cooking, eating, some shopping, lunch with friends, and planning the last 4 weeks of the school year.
I’d like to apologize for your not receiving Weekly Wrap updates the past 1-2 weeks. Several days after sending them out, each and every one was returned with: “message temporarily rejected”. I am trying a different tact this week which I hope works. I am including the important missed information.
Sylvia Giomi has asked “that if anyone has a child who is interested in taking part in the Christmas Eve Children’s Mass Play, to please call the parish office at 265-5868. The Mass is at 4PM. Tryouts will be on Sunday, December 3 from 1:30 to 3PM in the Church.
Also- Las Posadas will take place this year on Sunday, December 10 at 5:00 PM. There will be plenty of service hour opportunities if you would like to help out. Please call Sylvia at 255-6391.
The 7th & 8th grade classes will be attending a retreat at the Catholic Schools center by St. Pius X H.S. on Tuesday, November 28th from 10-2 after Thanksgiving. We will be sending permission slips home this week. We will need some parents to drive our students to the retreat and/or pick them up. I can take 6 students in my van. If you can drive, please indicate so on the permission slip.
Thanks.
This Friday, December 1st is “First Friday” which means we will have a 1pm dismissal. We will have regular aftercare.
In the morning we will have our First Friday Fellowship which will be all about recycling. Our Student Council will present a skit, after which representatives from Albuquerque’s Solid Waste Department which will do a presentation geared towards school children. Afterwards, we will make Christmas ornaments using recycled materials. If you save toilet tissue and paper towel tubes, we can use them.
As with any of our school assemblies and First Friday Fellowships, you are most welcome to join us. We will start at 9am.
Take care, and thank you for the opportunity to teach your children!
Paula Domino DeHaas, Principal
